Candlelight Carols

A beloved Boston tradition since 1909, Candlelight Carols celebrates the birth of Christ through Scripture readings and carols and anthems offered by the Trinity choirs and instrumentalists.  

In the October 21, 2016 edition of Yankee Magazine, writer Amy Traverso called it "...as close to heaven as human hands and voices have ever crafted. To be amid people in a room so full and so fully at peace. This is the Christmas of dreams."
