With Heart and Voice: Laetare Sunday

With Heart and Voice ® Program 1713

Suggested Broadcast: Sunday, March 26, 2017

The Fourth Sunday in Lent is often celebrated as “Laetare” Sunday, from the opening words of the Latin introit for the day, Laetare Jerusalem.  “Laetare” means “rejoice,” and music for this day will provide a brief respite from Lenten introspection and reflection.
