Sounds so beautiful. Sorry we won't be able to attend. When I was a little girl in New Mexico we would often go to see relatives in Belen (the Spanish name for Bethlehem) and I always remember how the singing there was such beautiful prayer.

Programme looked wonderful. Good to see 'Adeste Fideles' - did you sing it in latin? We did here in our small rural parish in the English Midlands, along with the Missa de Angelis and Credo III. A happy and Holy Christmas to you and your parishioners.

Sounds wonderful. Wish I could have been there. Went to Kalida, Ohio Saint Michael's which has a beautiful church and beautiful Midnight Mass, also.
