Choir Family Mass Dates

The remaining Family Masses are on the following dates:
March 16th, April 20th, May 18th, and June 1st--- though because we are adding days at the end of the year to make up for snow days, it's possible that last date could change.

You'll notice that April 20th is Easter.  That is correct.  This year, the St. Sylvester School Choir members will be lending their voices to celebrate Easter at St. Sylvester Church!  I understand that some families will be out of town, but for those able to make it, it will be an extra special experience with extra instruments (professional players) added just for the occasion.

CHRISTMAS CONCERT Dec. 8th at 4:00p.m.

Our Christmas concert is seriously just around the corner.  This means, I will use this blog to post some helpful materials for students as they finish preparing their music.  I can't wait to see everyone at the concert.  Students and families should arrive at St. Sylvester Church by at least 3:45 on Sunday the 8th.  And don't forget the potluck in Schwinn Hall afterward.  It will all make for a wonderful time!
