Using "Lessons and Carols" as the starting point... this service of song and readings reached over 300 people, more than we ever hoped for a first time event!
Here are some video highlights, followed by photos from the evening:
most of "Rise Up Shepherd and Follow":
I attempted to put two photos together to give you the idea of how many people were a part of the evening: two choirs, the Bell A'Peal bell choir, a bunch of musicians. Somehow our music director, Tom O'Sullivan, didn't make it in, probably because he was playing the organ during this piece. Otherwise he was on the piano or up front directing.
Soloists for "Once in Royal David's City":
Soloists from "O Sifuni Mungu" with choir. We dimmed the lights for this one, illustrating the story of creation.
Soloists for "Immanuel":
(By the way, the choir was asked to wear red, green, black and/or that crazy Christmas sweater!)
Soloist for "On That Holy Mountain":
Soloists for "Carol of the Stranger":
Soloist for "Glory to God" (Handel):
Can't wait for next year's!
