Pasterka 2017

On Sunday, December 24, 2017, members of the Wawel Folk Ensemble attended and participated in the Pasterka (midnight) mass in Polish folk dress at Sweetest Heart of Mary Church in Detroit, Michigan.

Wawel has a history with Sweetest Heart of Mary Church going back to at least the 1970s.  Wawel performs at the Church's annual Pierogi Festival in August, and participates in the sunrise services on Easter Sunday as well as the Pasterka on Christmas Eve.  In addition to the performances and processions, several members of the ensemble were married at Sweetest Heart of Mary and are current parishioners.

Wawel is currently on its holiday break, but will return to practices in 2018 on January 31.  Please check this blog and the ensemble's facebook page for performance updates and future events.

Happy New Year!
