ST. CLOUD — The St. John’s Boys’ Choir will once again celebrate the holiday season with “A Ceremony of Carols,” at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 16 at St. Mary’s Cathedral.

“It’s truly the most beautiful concert of the season,” said artistic director Aaron Carpenter. “Concert-goers look forward to it all year long and we’re glad to once again share it with Central Minnesota.”

Founded in 1981, the St. John’s Boys’ Choir includes four ensembles that perform more than 50 times per year. Members of the choir come from home, public and private schools in more than 15 communities around central Minnesota.

The choir will be accepting donations of self-care products before and after the concerts. The list of accepted items includes:
