The 1995 Moravian Book of Worship features three liturgies for the Advent and Christmas season. Here, we offer the full text of the Advent 1, Advent 2 and Christmas liturgies, along with recordings of the music included in each.
All Moravian congregations have permission to use these materials in creating their 2020 Advent and Christmas services. You may stream these materials as part of those services, along with printing the liturgies and hymn texts in accompanying printed materials.
For all other uses, please contact the Interprovincial Board of Communication at [email protected].
To preview the music file, press play under each name. To download the .MP3 music file, click the text.
