Winter - 2025
Theme: The Heart of Christmas
This is based on the Thurman poem, The Work of Christmas. To paraphrase:
“When the star, the angels, the shepherds and kings are gone, the work of Christmas begins: to help others, to bring peace to the world and to make music in the heart.”
We will have songs about the star, the angels, shepherds and kings, but also a wonderful Gloria in Excelsis, a Magnificat and a triumphant Dona Nobis Pacem
