Sunday, December 7 at 9:00 a.m.
This Christmas season, celebrate the One who has radically changed lives past, present, and future as the Chancel Christmas Choir, Voices of Grace and children's choirs present: Once upon a Holy Night written by Regi Stone and Bradley Knight with dramatic narrative penned by Kimberlee Stone. Biblical characters Isaiah, Elizabeth, Joseph, and a shepherd poignantly reflect on the long-awaited fulfillment of the prophesied Messiah. But an additional and unexpected character, a broken and desperate modern-day person experiences the relevance of that fulfilled promise as the Child born in a manger brings healing and salvation to a longing heart.
Nestled between a tremendous cinematic processional overture and a tender, evangelistic closing, listeners will be taken on a musical journey that moves seamlessly from blues-gospel to jazzy, from worshipful to celebratory. Although this program will only be presented at the 9:00 service, we hope that singers and dancers from the 11:00 service will also like to participate.
