Light in the Darkness Winter 2025 Recap
This winter, the Occidental Community Choir invited West County to join us in creating Light in the Darkness: a concert series filled with music that carries hope through struggle; warmth through winter; and light through the longest night. With songs that uplift, inspire, and celebrate the resilience of the human spirit, this season’s program reminded us that even the smallest flame can guide us home.
