Inviting to our Christmas Cantata

We will lift up our Christmas cantata "The Winter Rose" by Joseph Martin on Dec. 11th all three morning services with a full orchestra.
I would like to invite anyone who would like to join singing or playing instruments to proclaim our Savior, Jesus, with a beautiful music! Please go to our web site and see the dates of rehearsal and contact me! The Winter Rose was beautifully written like a poem; desribing our Savior, Jesus as a beautiful winter rose.
There will be two time offered rehearsals; one on Wed. night starting Sept. 21st at 8:30-9:00 PM for 30 min. The other one starting on Oct. 30th at 12:30-1:10 Sunday right after 11:00 service. Either one will be great if you can join us. Please contact me before you join.

The adult choir had a mini retreat last Saturday in our church. There were around 40 people, sharing what core values are in our lives and as a choir member. We focused on also rehearsing "Missa Festiva" which will be performed on Oct. 29th at 7:00, and had a reading session of our Christmas cantata. We all got very excited.

We still need more people to join us in various ways; The student choir, band; children's choir, handbells, chimes, and of course adult choirs as well as instrumental players.
As I heard over the people's shoulders, there are many school activities scheduled on Sunday mornings. It broke my hearts; it means Christians are not standing up! We need to proclaim that worshipping God is our priority as christians! We sometimes get too soft to stand up. I have been praying for this problem as soon as I heard. People who are not Christians do not have any ideas about Sundays. We need to stand firm of our priority. Let's keep praying!
