A day to be proud of where you come from, to celebrate what makes each and every one of us unique, and to discover the beauty in each other's differences. We've got a jam-packed program, performances, dances, music, fashion, and so much more. So, settle in, get comfortable, and get ready to be absolutely amazed. Let's go. Our very first performance of the afternoon is one that is going to fill this entire space with something truly, truly special. The children's liturgy is one of the most sacred traditions in our Catholic faith. While we adults sit and listen, these little ones have their own space to encounter God in a language that speaks directly to their heart. And what you're about to hear is not just a song. It is a prayer sung with the purest, most unfiltered faith you will ever witness. And honestly, there is nothing more beautiful than that. These little ones have been preparing with so much heart and so much dedication. And today, they get to share that with all of us. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our children's sitage group to the stage.
