Amahl and the Night Visitors at SDTK – 12/16 at 6PM
AN INSPIRATIONAL EVENING FOR THE CHRISTMAS SEASON!
in the Great Hall at St. David the King
Saturday, December 16, 2023
6:00 PM
Tickets $30
Children 12 and under are free (but they do need tickets)
Now in its 35th Anniversary Season, Boheme Opera NJ brings opera to the community with Gian Carlo Menotti’s Amahl and the Night Visitors, an uplifting, inspirational story of two children joined by faith on the eve of the Nativity.
A poor mother and her disabled son, Amahl, who has a penchant for tall tales, open their humble home to the Three Kings on their westward, star-guided quest. What begins as a respite on the road to Bethlehem becomes a journey of learning, love and healing. Enjoy a memorable family experience that will bring you holiday warmth and joy.
Amahl and the Night Visitors made television history when it was broadcast live on NBC on December 24, 1951 – the first opera commissioned and written for television and the debut of Hallmark Hall of Fame.

Learn about the Ignatian Volunteer Corps 12/7 1PM
THE IGNATIAN VOLUNTEER CORPS: A RETIREMENT COMMITMENT THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
The Ignatian Volunteer Corps (ivcusa.org), a Jesuit ministry, offers experienced men and women (most age 50+) exceptional volunteer opportunities, matching them with the greatest social needs of our time.
IVC works in partnership with hundreds of nonprofit partner organizations that provide lgnatian volunteers with substantive work serving individuals who have slipped through this country’s safety net. Ignatian volunteers usually serve two days a week at their volunteer site. They also take part in regular local gatherings with their fellow IVC volunteers, reflecting prayerfully on the work they are doing and supporting one other in their commitment.
John Green, IVC’s director for Philadelphia and our area of New Jersey, is holding an information session where you can explore whether this commitment to volunteer service through IVC might be right for you. It will take place at St. David the King, 1 New Village Road, Princeton Junction on Thursday, December 7, at 1:00 PM. You can register for the session at bit.ly/IVC-Dec7. If you can’t come to the session, simply email John Green with your name and any questions you might have: jgreen@ivcusa.org.
