A Moravian Lovefeast service is a special worship service composed of hymn singing and a shared simple meal, of a sweet bun and coffee or chocolate milk. Special music with the many choirs, trombone (brass) choir, or a chamber orchestra are often shared at these services. All are invited to our Lovefeast services (Tickets required for Christmas Vigils.)
