Hundreds of actors, crew and volunteers created a beautiful city of storytelling, gospel and faith. Photo slideshows will remain on the Godspell 2011 page and at the St. Peter’s Flickr photostream.

On Sunday, December 12, 2010, we’ll observe our Advent tradition for the 20th time! Choir and soloists from St. Peter’s will be joined by a chamber orchestra conducted by Don Witman. We’ll sing Part I of Handel’s Messiah, capped off by a rousing rendition of the Hallelujah Chorus.

Dress is casual, and the event is family-friendly. Older children enjoy being part of the music-making, and the nursery is open for young ones. Bring a score or borrow one at the door, and plan to stay for the reception.
