CHILDREN’S CHOIR
The Children’s Choir participated in a full musical production December 18 when they sang three songs as part of the Adult Christmas Choir’s Musical. During ‘Gospel Truth’, the first four gospels were portrayed by: Austin Crowder (Matthew), Phoenix Roland (Mark), Hunter Hooper (Dr. Luke), and Diego Jimenez (John). Zoe Mulkey assisted the Kindergarten & Pre–Kindergarten children with her solo during the song “Five Little Fingers”.
For some of these thirty-two pre-K to 6th grade singers, this was their first ‘on-stage’ performance. We are always encouraged when the younger part of God’s Kingdom deliver God’s truths. Thank you to all the parents who generously shared their children with us. Also, a big THANK YOU to the ladies who heard God’s call and managed this choir before and during the performance: Susan Bricker, Tami Crowder, Stacy Hooper and Kay Morefield. A special Thank You goes to Ashleigh Main for teaching the pre-K and K children their song, and helping conduct it during the performance.
SPECIAL NOTE: The Children’s Choir will take a holiday break and will resume the fourth Sunday of JANUARY 2012, which is January 22 (the weekend after the Martin Luther King Holiday). The Adult Choir will begin on January 18, 5:45 a.m. to 6:45.

ADULT CHRISTMAS CHOIR
On December 18, the Adult Christmas Choir (helped by the Children’s Choir and Kindergarten & Pre-K children) presented their Christmas Musical to a full sanctuary. Judging by audience reaction, the Holy Spirit did a good job communicating the message of each song to everyone in attendance.
A special ’Thank You’ goes to Jim and Beverly Smith who made all the Adult Choir Vests. And Thanks to Kay Morefield for helping them with the Children’s Choir Collars.
No production can be done by a choir alone! It takes a technical crew to handle the technical and ‘behind-the-scenes’ elements. Our tech crew was great and deserves special recognition for their excellent work: Greg Dressel – music, Afton Kemp – overall sound, Tanner Sharp – visual effects, and Cheri Kiekel - lighting.
