Once again, the First Baptist Church of Fairlea welcomes the public to celebrate Christmas in song! “Christmas Joy” includes soulful ballads as well as high-energy exclamations of praise first made popular by the world-renowned Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir.
The cantata, under the direction of Jeff Bryant, will be presented on Dec. 15 at 8:30 p.m. in the Chapel at The Greenbrier, and on Dec. 16 at 7:30 p.m. in the sanctuary of First Baptist of Fairlea. A live orchestra will accompany the choir, featuring both local and regional musicians.
The first rehearsal for interested singers is Sunday, Oct. 7, from 5 to 6:15 p.m. at First Baptist of Fairlea. The choir will practice every Sunday until the cantata is presented. Questions may be directed to FBC’s church office at 1stbaptistfairlea@suddenlinkmail.com or 304-645-3533.
