“Passers-by stopped for a moment to pause and listen in the busy streets of Washington, D.C., as Dominican brothers, sisters and friars gathered in joyful song to wish people a Merry Christmas.
“One observer, John Cherry of Washington, D.C., described the scene as ‘very soothing to my spirit.’ . . .
“‘The purpose of Jesus is to come and let the light shine in the darkness,’ he continued, saying that the Dominicans’ singing offered a reminder of this in an often busy and sometimes difficult city.”
A recent Catholic News Agency article reported on this outreach.
