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.

To continue the Feast Day Celebration of Christ the King
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”.
