The holiday season is here, and the Scandinavian Cultural Center at PLU is busy putting up their Christmas tree and practicing songs for Sankta Lucia.

First up is November 29, the Julesangkveld, the Norwegian Language Christmas Service. It will be held in the Ness Family Chapel on the 3rd floor of the KHP (Karen Hille Phillips, formerly Eastvold) building near Red Square at 4 p.m. This service is followed by traditional Christmas cookies.

On December 6, the 75th Swedish Sankta Lucia Festival of Light will be held at 4 p.m. in the Scandinavian Cultural Center downstairs in the Anderson University center. Organizers are asking for you to bring donations for the Trinity Lutheran Community Food Pantry.

Members of the SCC are also invited to sign up for the Jul Banquet on December 12 before November 30.
