The Third Sunday Of Advent (Gaudete)
O Sapientia — “O Wisdom”

The Third Sunday Of Advent (Gaudete)

Stir up thy power, O Lord, and with great might come among us; and, because we are sorely hindered by our sins, let thy bountiful grace and mercy speedily help and deliver us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be honor and glory, world without end. Amen.

The 5th Avenue doors will close at 12:30 p.m. as our Choir of Men and Boys present Christmas Carols on the historic steps of Saint Thomas Church. Visitors can still access the church via our 53rd street doors just around the northwest corner of the church. The 5th Avenue doors will reopen at roughly 1 p.m.

9:00 a.m. | The Chancel

Members of the Noble Singers, our parish children’s choir, with director Rebecca Kellerman-Filsell
