November 2026 Sun 29 Celebrating the “Glorious Impossible”: A Reflection on the Art & Prayer-Content of the Christmas Crèche November 29 @ 10:30 am – 11:30 am

Speaker: Michael E. DeSanctis This presentation will explain how the Christian crèche-building tradition embodies what writer Madeleine L’Engel once labeled the “Glorious Impossible” of the Jesus’ birth. It will trace its history to the nature-embracing ministry of Francis of Assisi (1181-1226) and illustrate how it persists today in the presenter’s work as an artist-educator.
