Helping the needy at St Stanislaus Church

Fr. Tadeusz writes: 
 
Once again at the urging of the Pastoral Council we are organizing Christmas help for the children and families who are most needy in our Parish as well as for the homeless of New Haven. There  is a tree in the sanctuary with stars on it asking for various items for the poor. If anyone is interested  in making the Christmas season a bit more joyful for these people, I ask you to take a star and buy the things it asks for and bring them unwrapped by either Saturday, Dec. 10th or Sunday, December 11th. You may also offer $25 gift cards. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for participating in this fine program.

A FREE CONCERT AT YALE

Saturday, December 3, 4-5pm
Saint Thomas More Chapel @ Yale 268 Park Street, New Haven
Joint performance by Musica Sacra (NYC professional choir) and Yale singers
 
Julian Revie, composer in residence at St Thomas More Chapel, New Haven, wrote the pieces connected to the “Kyrie”
This dramatic setting of the Kyrie for twelve-part mixed chorus expresses three contrasting yet complementary facets of the human experience in our shared and much needed plea for divine mercy: despair, longing, and hope. These aspects of our cry for mercy are expressed in the subtitles I have added to the three sections of the piece: Out of the Depths, I Cry to Thee (Ps. 130:1); The Soul and Her Savior; and God is My Help, My Soul Is at Rest (Ps. 62:5).
