The choir is excited to have the opportunity to sing with these talented and sweet ladies.” Brooks said the church’s Festival of Christmas has taken many forms over the years, ranging from full musical and theatrical dramas to contemplative times of worship to guest artists coming in. “Festival is our church’s gift to the community, and a way to share the gospel during this important time of the year,” she said. “So we have never charged the public to attend. There will be an opportunity for a love offering, so people can give to help offset the cost if they wish.” Doors for the concert will open at 6 p.m., and seating is first come, first served.
