24th Annual Light the Way Continues Tradition
A million twinkling lights will illuminate the night sky at the University of Incarnate Word on Saturday, Nov. 21 as the university kicks-off the holiday season in style at the 24th Annual Light the Way celebration.
Light the Way activities will begin with Mass at 5:30 p.m. in Our Lady’s Chapel (4301 Broadway). After the service, the opening ceremony will kick off at 7:30 p.m. in the McDermott Convocation Center. Musical entertainment will include the choirs of the University of the Incarnate Word, Incarnate Word High School, St. Anthony Catholic School and St. Peter Prince of Apostles Catholic School. The St. Anthony Catholic High School jazz band will also entertain the crowd. Visitors are invited to bring a new unwrapped toy for the Elf Louise Toy Drive.
After the official switch is flipped, mariachis will lead the candlelight procession of guests through the campus and to Central Market H-E-B for a complimentary reception. Everyone is invited to enjoy the beauty of the University of the Incarnate Word campus decorated for the holiday season. The campus will be open for self-guided tours through January 6. This event is sponsored by UIW and H-E-B.
A live stream of the ceremony will be available here the evening of the event.
