[Choir] Christmas Eve

[Bill Paine]

Thank you so much for a lovely Christmas Eve service!  Bettie and I were in Williamsburg, Virginia with Bettie’s Dad this holiday.  The music was lovely - as others have said.  It brought tears to the eyes to feel your presence on the chancel and in the vestry - LIVE!  It brings a bit more hope that humans can gather together once again - and that UCM Choir can get together and sing.

As others have pointed out, the O Holy Night was so wonderful - the choice of arrangement, soloists, direction and, of course, your voices.

We loved hearing Cecile in solo as well!  I’ve enjoyed her voice in rehearsals and in the Crones, but hearing her solo was really special and started off the piece beautifully.  Verdis’s part was - as has been mentioned - simply beautiful and so lovely.  Thank you, Cecile!  Thank you, Verdis!

Thank you, Donia!  Thank you, choir!  It was a beautiful service and we missed being with you and lending our voices, too!

Love,
Bill & Bettie
