Heartfelt Thanks!
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all the people who made Holy Week so meaningful during this Lenten and Easter season.
Many thanks to Aaron Wilburn for his leadership of the Children's Choir as they processed and sang the opening hymns and led in the Call to Worship, and then sang such a joyful song as we began Holy Week.
A very deeply heartfelt thank you to the Chancel Choir, who provided music all week from Palm Sunday, an Anthem on Maundy Thursday, to Good Friday's wonderful Faure Requiem and then turned around and sang both services on Easter morning! First Presbyterian is VERY blessed to have such a group of dedicated musicians! THANK YOU!
Handbells provided music starting us off with an exaltant prelude at the Palm Sunday Service to a deeply felt, "O Sacred Head Now Wounded" at the Good Friday service. Thank you for sharing your musical gifts with all of us!
To all the readers who gave of their time and brought so much meaning to the Passion story and Easter morning, thank you!
To the Angel Choir who came and sang with Chancel at the 10am service! Thank you! Having the combined forces of both choirs was so incredibly moving! Thank you to Joy Hire and the Angel Choir for all their hard work!
Thank you all! It's truly a blessing working together to share the gift of music through worship!
