In a year when traditions have been turned topsy turvy and itâs not possible for people to come to the Mission San Xavier del Bac for the annual Patronatoâs Christmas at San Xavier Concert Series, the Patronato has made it possible for the mission to come to the people.
For the first time in 24 years, the typically sold-out concert can be enjoyed from anywhere in the world through Dec. 31 online at patronatosanxavier.org with a one-time contribution in any amount.
âWhen we realized in April that the concert was not likely to happen due to COVID, we decided to craft a concert where the mission would become the star: We wanted people to experience the beauty that is the Mission San Xavier. Many describe it as the most stunning building in all of Arizona and the finest example of Mexican Baroque architecture in the country,â said Miles Green, executive director of the Patronato San Xavier, a nonprofit
