St. Olaf Christmas Festival

One of my Christmas season traditions (OK. . . it is technically an Advent tradition) is to listen to the St. Olaf Christmas Festival. While I haven’t actually been to Northfield, MN, Minnesota Public Radio will be broadcasting the concert live on Sunday, Dec. 6, 2009 at 3:30 PM (Central Time). You can learn more about the Festival, link to the live broadcast, and download a service program by visiting the Festival site. Each year there is some fine choral and orchestral music.

Minnesota Public Radio will present a live broadcast — on the air and streamed online — of the St. Olaf Christmas Festival, “My Spirit Sings of Wondrous Things,” Sunday, Dec. 7, beginning at 3:30 p.m (Central Time). MPR will present an encore broadcast Dec. 25 from 8 to 10 p.m.
Listening to the St. Olaf Christmas Festival has become an annual tradition for me.
Handbell Inspiration – The St Olaf Ringers
If your church has a handbell choir and you are interested in ringing, ask the director how you can participate. Most choirs welcome new people with open arms and will help you learn the joy of bell ringing. It all begins with counting 1, 2, 3, and 4.
