Project MERCATOR | Urbi et Orbi

This evening, in a little under twelve hours' time, the choirs of Holy Redeemer Catholic Church (Burton) & Saint Pius X Catholic Church (Flint) will present their annual Festival of Carols, at Saint Pius X (G-3139 Hogarth Avenue, Flint, Michigan, 48532). The festivities begin promptly at 7:00 P.M. & admission is gratis. Come enjoy the music & put yourself in the preparatory spirit of Advent. The Savior is coming!

Yours truly will be performing as a member of the Holy Redeemer contingent, but don't let that deter you. The rest of the singers are really quite talented.

Commentary: I would happily further promote the Festival of Carols by choosing one of the songs to be performed as the R.B.D.S.O.T.D., but they are by necessity religious in nature, whereas attentive readers may recall that R.B.D.S.O.T.D. tradition is to feature secular Christmas music in the closing weeks of Advent & sacred Christmas music throughout the twelve days of the Christmastide.
