A oto kilka slow na temat koncertu, ktore Dr. Jim Mazurkiewicz umiescil  po koncercie na Facebook:

The “Kolednicy z Houston” concert provided by singers from ,,Our Lady of Czestochowa” Polish Catholic Church in Chappell Hill at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church today was outstanding. This gesture of love and friendship was a beautiful Christmas gift from one parish to another during this Christmas season. The singers and music were stellar, but the coming together of the 1880 and the 1980 Polish communities was very moving embracing our culture and faith highlighting Texas Polonia.  A special thank you!

…Maryna you are most welcome and it was a an honor to host you at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church in Chappel Hill. Once again, thank you to the parishioners from Our Lady of Czestochowa Polish Catholic Church in Houston for such a beautiful performance.

I’m glad that the Christmas season really doesn’t end the day after Christmas. The talented singers from Our Lady Of Czestochowa church in Houston put on a wonderful Christmas carol concert after Mass in Chappell Hill this morning. During Mass, 5 year old Sarah sang Przybiezeli do Bethlehem for the offertory song and Yessica Krozel sang a beautiful rendition of Ave Maria during Communion. Beautiful singing during Mass and at the concert.
