Heritage Memorial Church is pleased to invite the Fayette County community to join it for a free community event featuring the Ohio Christian University Music Department’s Chorale and Orchestra this Sunday, Dec. 4th at 11 a.m.
The 80-plus students from the Circleville-based Christian college will be featured in the 11 Sunday service at Heritage Memorial to kickoff the season with the joyful sounds of Christmas!
In full voice and orchestra, the students directed by Dione Bennett will perform many well-loved Christmas carols as well as selections from Handel’s “Messiah,” including festive orchestrations as well as acapella numbers that will be familiar and inspire the audience to sing along!
This is a free event, however, a voluntary love offering for the University Music Department will be taken. For more information, contact Heritage Memorial Church at (740) 335-1079, Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.
