Palestrina 500 Volunteers Needed

Sacred Heart will host a year-long choral festival called Palestrina 500, celebrating the quincentennial birthday of the great Renaissance composer Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (1525-94). This anniversary provides our parish a lens through which we can promote the good, true, and beautiful to our greater community. There will be monthly events starting December 2024 and ending December 2025 each with a Choral Meditation, Solemn Mass, and Reception.

We have decided that moving forward we would have one sign up per monthly event. Thank you for donating your time. The full list of dates is below.  If you are able to sign up for all events, let us know and we will sign you up.  Mike Tober dre@shgr.org or Laureen Fish lfish@shgr.org

This Advent season, the Church intentionally prepares for the wonder of the Nativity, the God of the Universe becoming not just incarnate, but an infant born of a woman. Here at Sacred Heart Academy, our special teachers form our students to meet God on the mountaintops and in the manger, and inspire these young Catholics with the striking beauty and awe of our Faith. Support our teachers who foster moments like these everyday, moments that stick with students for a lifetime, by partnering with the SHA Annual Fund for Giving Tuesday!
