    I love all these works and it is a great blessing to conduct them.

    From the bourbon lands,

    Kevin,

    The Poor -- i.e., the Souls in Purgatory?
    Or are these Pope Francis' poor?

    Genuinely puzzled.

    God bless,

    Chris

    The poor are the ones who come to our doors....needing food, clothing, a place to stay for a moment. We see sometimes 100 people a day. The expenses are overwhelming. The concert seeks to help out St. Vincent dePaul with these expenses. Last year we raised about 3000$.

    Kevin,

    Thank you for clearing that up. I noted the date, and figured that since it was during the month of the holy souls, those in Purgatory were logical, especially given the music you're playing......
