Enjoy a cozy evening of candlelight, music and history at the Santa Lucia Celebration of Lights service.

Santa Lucia symbolizes the end of winter and the return of light. St. Lucy of Syracuse (283-304 AD) was martyred during the Roman Empire for refusing to marry. According to legend, she brought food to Christians hiding in the Roman catacombs, wearing a candle-lit wreath on her head to light the way. In the 1700s, Lucia’s glowing figure appeared on the bow of a ship laden with food during a terrible famine in Sweden.
