For discerning vocations through Advent, Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity invite you to celebrate with music from the Catholic News At Eleven band.
Green Bay, WI (PRUnderground) November 18th, 2016
News At Eleven’s contemporary Christian songs feature tight vocal harmonies and styles ranging from gospel to funk to acoustic pop to rock. Entirely written by Catholic young adults, this album includes themes of discernment, evangelism, praise, and adoration. The music also carries us into the whole Advent Season.
Singer Ann MacPhail reflected “There are many hymns of praise, but not all of them seem joyful to this generation. With hearts wide open, News At Eleven sings this song of honor and praise to the “King of Glory”. “The Day Of The Lord” was inspired by living through 9/11, and draws from Isaiah 11 and 12. They felt that a lot of conflict could be resolved if “others” could become “our brothers”.
” “Sign Of The Times” – When we read the Bible, it sounds like the stories all happened so long ago. It’s easy to think of Jesus and his miracles as things of the past. How do we know he’s still with us today? Do modern day miracles look like those of biblical times, or should we look for something different? People talk about ”signs of the times” as negative things, and young people are often blamed. But good things are happening all around us – we just need to look in the right places. Signs of Jesus’ love are everywhere as people demonstrate his love by working to build the Kingdom of God.”
News At Eleven was founded in Los Angeles, CA by a group of students and alumni who served as the contemporary choir for the University of Southern California Catholic Center’s 11 AM Mass. Each week, the group led the community with upbeat original songs and unique arrangements of contemporary Catholic standards. When the group decided to record its first album in early 1999, the members were unsure what to call themselves, but “The University of Southern California Catholic Center 11 AM Contemporary Choir” wasn’t going to cut it. Instead, the group sought a name that was a subtle reference to both their music and their roots at the USC Catholic Center. In the end, the members chose News At Eleven because of their message—the “Good News” of Jesus Christ—and their ministry at the 11 o’clock Mass.
