“It's the warmth that comes to the hearts of men when the Christmas spirit returns again."

Making the Music of Christmas a Permanent Part of Our Lives

Someone once wrote:

“Until one feels the spirit of Christmas, there is no Christmas. All else is outward display-so much tinsel and decorations. For it isn't the holly, it isn't the snow. It isn't the tree not the firelight's glow. It's the warmth that comes to the hearts of men when the Christmas spirit returns again."

When you listen to the marvelous music of the Repasz Band and the glorious voices of the College Misericordia chorus, you begin to understand the meaning of that quotation.

These marvelous sounds and these gorgeous voices speak to a giving heart, an open heart, a peaceful heart, a joyful heart. And that’s what Christmas is all about.

You can see it in the eyes of the performers. You can hear it in the sounds of the music. It is recorded in every word they sing.

These are sounds and words that make you feel good all over. They send chills down your spine. They make you feel comfortable with whom you are and where you are in life.

At a time when the world is filled with too many examples of anger, alienation, division, and destruction, it is a healing experience to return to the words of Christmas and the beautiful simplicity of the Christmas story.

Christmas is about birth, childhood, redemption, reconciliation and peace on earth.

It is our hope that one day the Christmas message will resonate with every person everywhere. When people feel the message of Christmas in their heart and hear the music of Christmas in their soul, there will be peace on earth and good will toward all.

 

From our very special place here in Windsor Park, Kitch and I extend to everyone the joy, the blessings, and the peace that is Christmas.

From all of us who are part of Windsor Park Stories, we wish you a Merry Christmas, and we hope that your new year will be filled with blessings that will make your life peaceful, joyful, safe and filled with stories that will lift your spirits.
