AUGUSTA — The Doug and Dave Show is scheduled to present “Mass Confusion” — a mix of humor, song and the teachings of the Catholic Church — at 3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 19, at St. Augustine Church and hall on 75 Northern Ave.
The event will begin with a social from 1 to 2:45 p.m. in the hall of St. Augustine followed by the show in the church. After the show, Mass will be held in the church at 4:45 p.m.
In “Mass Confusion,” Doug Brummel and Dave Wilson will bring the Mass alive through sketches, characterizations and original music.
“Our prayer is that the next time people come to an actual Mass, they will appreciate its ancient history and realize they are part of something that has been ripening on the vine for 2,000 years,” Brummel said, according to a news release from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Portland. “We hope they participate more, sing more, pray more, and even become better stewards of all that God has blessed them with.”
“We hope the music we have composed can help bring each part of the Mass alive in new ways,” said Wilson.
Since launching “Mass Confusion” in 2018, as well as recording an album of original faith-in-action music in Nashville, the duo has become sought after for parish and diocesan events, youth rallies, and conferences. They have presented at major conferences like the National Catholic Youth Conference and the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry.
Brummel has toured the United States for more than 30 years, serving over 1,400 parishes with parish missions, retreats, and presentations. Wilson is an established musician, singer and storyteller. An award-winning songwriter, he has spent the better part of the past two decades as a touring country music artist. Both men serve their local parish family as worship leaders.
