A return to Stittsville for a favourite concert of 2016

Martha gives out our door prize after our St. Thomas Concert in Stittsville

Our third Christmas concert of the Christmas season 2016 was Dec 3rd at St Thomas Anglican church in Stittsville, On.

We always have so much fun there! Such a welcoming crowd and the church has great acoustics.

It is also a special place because back in 2014 we had an early Christmas present!  Gord Atkinson, his wife Elaine - and their son and his wife were in the audience.

Elaine, Gord, their son and wife were a wonderful surprise!

We were thrilled to meet up with our dear friend, who was there when The Stairwell Carollers name was coined!

We wish Gord and Elaine had been there this year. Unfortunately, though they wanted to see us, they were not well enough to attend.  I spoke to them on the phone and wished them a merry Christmas from all of us.

It is always such a joy to sing for the St. Thomas community. We will definitely be back!
