Christmas Music — too early or too much?

Ever experience the jolt of shopping for Halloween items, then moving on to the next aisle, only to be assaulted by Christmas merchandise? Ever been consulted by a retailer about when Christmas decorations should go on sale? Ever been asked by a store or a radio station about the best starting date for airing Christmas music? We haven’t.

But wait a minute! Can’t we turn the November – December hype into an opportunity to share what Christmas and the birth of Jesus means in our lives? Join us for an internet session about sharing faith during the Advent-Christmas season.

Explore ways to reach out to others through images like the empty manger and the Three Kings, through Christmas Carols and St. Nicholas events, through parish Nativity scenes and compassion for overflow crowds at Christmas liturgies.
