Christmas Music Selections - Episode 2

Merry Christmas!  In addition to our usual and extra homily posts, the Emmaus Pastorate musicians would like to share with you some of the Christmas music they've prepared for you this season.  We hope it adds to your Christmas joy as we celebrate Christ's birth thru the feast of his baptism on January 12, 2025!  In this episode, you'll hear from St. Joseph Choir at St. Joseph Parish in Elkader, IA, the musicians of St. Mary Parish in Strawberry Point, IA, and a few of the musicians from St. Mark Parish in Edgewood, IA.  Please note these are live recordings from either before or during worship, so expect to hear a little background noise and/or a priest singing occasionally.  The pieces in order of appearance are:

Child of the Poor (Scott Soper)
Go, Tell It on the Mountain (Spiritual)

Do You Hear What I Hear (unknown)

Noel (Chris Tomlin)

O What a King (Katy Nichole)

There Is Nothing Told (Christopher Willcock)

Holy Is His Name (John Michael Talbot)

Love Has Come (Matt Maher)
