The Music Ministry of Exaltation of the Holy Cross Church, Hanover Township, recently held its annual ‘A Celebration of Christmas’ on Epiphany Sunday. The adult and youth choirs of the parish presented the concert in front of a full church. The youth choir presented its program ‘On Our Way to Bethlehem.’ The adult choir sang special arrangements and Polish Christmas carols. There was an audience sing-a-long and a special grand finale. A social was held in the parish hall after the concert. A free-will offering was taken at the concert and $540 was collected.
