Join the OLA Choir for Advent & Christmas!

Unlock your hidden potential!  There are many unforeseen benefits

just making music; it’s being part of a community.  It’s about coming

together with people who share your passion for music and

creating something beautiful together.  Moreover, being part of a 

choir provides an opportunity to serve our community and 

draw closer to God through worship.  When you sing praises 

with others, you’re participating in an act of communal worship 

that can deepen your faith.  Don’t let fear hold you back 

from experiencing experiencing the joy and fulfillment that 

comes from singing in a Choir.

We are in need of singers for our OLA Adult Choir!

Contact Anne Sprissler at asprissler@olastrafford.org,

or stop by the Choir Loft and speak to the organist.

The month of November brings with it sentiments of remembering

the Souls of the Faithful Departed.  Once again, we have enshrined

in the back  of the church a Book of Remembrance to inscribe the

names of the dead so that we might remember and pray for all of

our beloved deceased.  In addition, a votive candle, placed next to

 it, will burn continuously throughout the entire month of

November as a  beautiful reminder to us of their memory

and the gift of faith and hope  that we share in the

resurrection of our Lord. 

Please take the time to inscribe the names of your loved ones in this book.

on Sunday, November 24th, there will be a half-hour concert

of African American Spirituals by Maria Dell’Orefice and

Stephen Giblin following the 10:00 a.m. Mass. These

well-composed and poignant solo pieces are guaranteed

to edify mind and soul. 

We invite all to “Come to the Waters of the Deep River”

and Let Us Break Bread Together”.
