St. Lucia Day is observed yearly on December 13th. In Scandinavian Lutheran countries, the day is known as the “Festival of Lights,” and celebrates the legend of St. Lucy bringing food to persecuted Christians in the 3rd century. It's said that St. Lucy wore candles in a wreath on her head to light her way through the catacombs, while keeping her hands free to carry food.
Faith Lutheran Church will honor this tradition with a St. Lucy's Day Tea and candlelight St. Lucia Vespers service on Wed., Dec. 10th. Tea, sandwiches and cookies will be served at 5:30pm in the fellowship hall, followed at 6:30pm by the St. Lucia procession and candlelight Vespers service.
Young girls of both the congregation & school will wear white robes and crowns of candles (LED)
