Each year at Christmas, Gloriae Dei Cantores celebrates the "dawn of redeeming grace" with a traditional candlelit Service of Readings and Carols, retelling the stories of Christ's birth that stir us with memories and hopes for peace and love. Just for a time as you listen to these carols and stories, let your heart fill with gratitude for our many blessings, and with goodwill toward others. Gloriae Dei Cantores offers this recording with a prayer that the joy of the season brings you renewed hope and a fresh sense of wonder!
