Take a virtual pilgrimage led by bible scholar and veteran of Holy Land Pilgrimages, Sr. Sallie Latkovich, CSJ. She will be offering a personal tour of the places where Jesus was born and guiding participants in a reflection about the meaning of Christmas during the pandemic.
See Jesus – How Do We Image Christ?
Tuesday, December 8, 2020, 7:00pm to 8:30pm via Zoom call.
The aftermath of shootings against unarmed persons of color this past summer has led to greater recognition of the role implicit bias plays in our lives. This effects how artist image Christ and how viewer interpret sacred art. Take a visual journey through discovering who Christ is and how he has been portraited. Presented by Fr. Sergio Romo.
Praise Jesus – Lessons in Carols.
Monday, December 14, 2020, 7:00pm to 8:30pm via Zoom call.
We give praise to the newborn Jesus through the Christmas Carols we sing. Take a moment to learn more about the history of some famous Christmas Carols and sing along (from at home). This final evening in our Advent Speaker series will prepare participants for singing during our “Come to the Manger” and ultimately Christmas. Presented by Megan Daigle and parish musicians.
Gather on the street side of Saint Andrew to pay respects to Jesus through our outdoor manger and to sing a Christmas carol to the music of Saint Andrews church bells. Visit www.standrew.org/christmas to make your reservation to come.
