Tickets will not need to be purchased for either the 9:00 or 10:30 am seating. We will be requesting donations on the dayof Luica.
Singers
Inviting all Lucia Singers for one practice: Wednesday, December 6 at 7:30pm. New attendees to Bethlehem are encouraged to join in our Lucia Singers Choir. You are requested to be available all morning on Saturday, as we sing at each seating.
