A celebration of Hispanic and Latinas in our communities and our communities of faith.
Where: All Saints' Chapel
When: Thursday, October 6th, 2022 @ 7:30pm
Caminemos con María is an invitation to our communities, to celebrate Latinas and Hispanic women, their gifts, and their stories of struggle, liberation, and resurrection, as captured in the traditional genre of Canción Latinoamericana, (Latin American Song). Each song has the name of María, and tell the story of women from different contexts, women of unbreakable faith, who draw strength from their vulnerabilities, to face the struggles of life, to bring about hope and liberation for themselves, and the families who depend on them. Yuri Rodriguez, sings these stories, and makes the connection between the name "María", the socio-cultural expectations that weigh on the shoulders of Latinas and Marías all over the world, and the biblical stories of Marías in our faith tradition. Rodríguez is accompanied by the Worship with Bravery ensemble, an ensemble of virtuso musicians (faculty and alumni) of the prestigious Jacobs School of Music, at Indiana University. They are the musicians leading the Latin American Choir at Christ Church Cathedral, Indianapolis, a choir conducted by Yuri Rodriguez from 2013 until 2020.
