Handel's Messiah Concert

Immaculate Conception Shelter along with Our Lady of Sorrows music director, Bridget De Moura Castro, will be presenting a benefit concert of Handel’s Messiah, Part One & Hallelujah Chorus. The fundraiser will be held at Our Lady of Sorrows, 79 New Park Avenue, Hartford. The Hartford Courant’s Susan Campbell will present a reading to recognize Hartford’s homeless who have died in 2011. The concert will be Friday, January 27th at 6 p.m. In lieu of tickets, monetary donations as well as goods including gently used men’s winter coats & clothing, blankets and men’s toiletries are greatly appreciated. Particularly during this economic climate, now more than ever, donations are needed. Immaculate is operating the City of Hartford’s No Freeze Shelter which brings the total of homeless men we serve to 150 each night. Light refreshments will be served. Please come and support the Immaculate Conception Shelter.
