End the old year on a high note at St. James' Episcopal Church's annual sing-along to selected choruses of The Messiah this Sunday, Dec. 31st, at 3 p.m. Conducted by Derek Carson of Williams College and featuring professional soloists and orchestral accompaniment, you'll be transported by Handel's Christmas masterwork, whether you choose to join in the choruses, hum along, or just sit back and enjoy. There will be a limited number of scores available, or bring your own. This popular choral event is free and open to all, although free-will donations will be greatly appreciated.

Happy New Year to all!
