Patronato’s Christmas at San Xavier
Linda Ronstadt headlined the first concert at the Mission more than 22 years ago, starting a beloved tradition that now marks the beginning of Tucson’s holiday season. This signature series of concerts raises funds for Patronato, a nonprofit organization devoted to restoring and preserving Mission San Xavier for future generations.

Songs of the Nave: A Christmas Tradition at Mission San Xavier
By Richard Fenwick
There is plenty to boast about in Southern Arizona, but perhaps the best of our boasts comes whenever the subject of the season makes its way into the conversation. We like to remind our out-of-town friends and families how summer monsoons bring us respite from the heat, or how verdant and alive the Sonoran Desert becomes each spring.
