Advent at Baylor: A Bilingual Hymn Festival. Order GIA’s bilingual hymnal  here.

December 5 – 7:00 pm Armstrong Browning Library, Baylor University

We hope you will join us for this multicultural Advent service. It’s a wonderful way to begin your Advent observance, and also an opportunity to introduce family, friends, colleagues, and students to this blessed season of the Church year. Our service is about 50 minutes long and this year will feature beloved familiar hymns, as well as Advent hymns from other cultures. Dr. Burt Burleson, University Chaplain, Carlos Colón, and others will be leading a choir and an instrumental group. More than 25 students, faculty, staff, and friends from the Waco area have come together to participate, and to lead us in song and prayer. Come and let us sing together, pray for our world, and hear the Scriptures resonate at the beautiful Armstrong Browning Library Foyer of Meditation.
