On Sunday, March 29, our Worship Ministry will present an Easter program featuring anthems and solos which tell the Passion Story, from the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem through the Resurrection.
The program will consist of traditional Easter music sung by the Chancel and Children's Choirs, and solos by Crystal Harper, and Sam and Bree Brown. The music ranges from a powerful opening and Triumphal Entry to softer ballads, an emotional, dramatic betrayal and mock trial emphasizing Christ's suffering, and culminates joyfully with the Resurrection. Through the presentation, we see that Jesus Christ is truly the Lamb of God, slain from the foundation of the world, sacrificed for all sinners. The Gospel is presented plainly, emphasizing that as believers, we are truly sinners saved by Grace.
The Chancel Choir will be directed by Donna Webb, the Children's Choir by Sam and Bree Brown. Narration by Dave Heydinger.
Please make a special to come out this Sunday, March 29, at 10:00 AM, to hear this presentation of the Gospel through music. SOLI DEO GLORIA!
