I had the joy of leading a Vespers service with Mariachi Ágape of San Antonio at the Calvin Symposium of Worship. We opened with this musical setting inspired by Psalm 122. You can find the music in GIA’s bilingual hymnal, Santo/Santo/Santo. Thank you to Maestros Juan Bautista Ortiz and Isaac Ortiz for their gracious leadership. And also to Brian Hehn for the video.

Hace tres años, fuimos bendecidos con la visita de éste maravilloso grupo.
