Sing-Along Messiah
The orchestra, the soloists, one of the greatest pieces of music ever composed--bring some friends and join in favorite choruses from the magnificent Messiah. This popular annual event brought 300 people to sing in the Sanctuary last year. Here's a selection from last year, so crank up the volume on your computer speakers! A great way to find the spirit of the season: Hallelujah!
