Join us for Gospel Brunch, featuring Gordon Michaels & Company!

Gordon Michaels’ voice has been described as a deeply personal expression of his soul. began singing at age three and quickly found his voice in gospel and musical theatre. A graduate of New York City’s famed Music & Art High School (the inspiration for Fame) and the Boston Conservatory of Music, his extraordinary talent has carried him around the world—sharing stages with legends like Patti LaBelle, Jennifer Holliday, James Taylor, Aerosmith, Rod Stewart, Cissy Houston, Keith Lockhart, Peter Cetera, Deborah Cox, Tramaine & Edward Hawkins, and Natalie Cole. He’s also performed as a special guest soloist with the Harlem Gospel Choir at the Vatican for Pope John Paul II’s internationally televised Christmas Eve celebration.

Michaels created and hosted the first Gospel Brunch at the original House of Blues in Harvard Square, Cambridge—a now-closed venue that helped launch a citywide love affair with gospel brunch culture. Now, Sanctuary is honored to continue that tradition. Set in a beautifully restored former church, the venue provides the perfect setting for an uplifting morning filled with music, soul, and community. Guests can enjoy a delicious southern-inspired brunch from Gloria Moon Catering.

As we get closer to the holidays, the Maynard Food Pantry is still hoping to match a few more children with sponsors. If you are in a position to help, even in a small way, it would make a meaningful difference for a local child and their family.

If sponsoring a child on your own feels a bit out of reach this season, teaming up with another family or a group of friends can be a wonderful (and fun!) way to spread the cost and still share in the joy of giving. Many families in past years have pooled their kindness to make a child’s holiday brighter.

Those who would like to purchase gifts will be given specific information about a certain child(ren), including ages, sizes, and special gift requests. If you would like to donate or need additional information, please contact Mary Brannelly at [email protected] no later than Friday, December 12, for drop-off information. Thank you!
