Wrap yourself in the warmth of the season, immersed in the candlelit setting of historic Faith Bible Church Creston. Lakeside has carefully curated a concert of familiar favorites and new discoveries that will delight the soul and fill you with the Christmas spirit and joy of the holiday season.
Let’s gather together on the Sunday before Thanksgiving to set the tone for the week. This concert will focus on beautiful music to uplift the soul and hymns with a message of thanks. The attitude of gratitude is good for the soul. Vivaldi’s “Autumn”, Tchaikovsky’s “September and October” from The Seasons, As The Deer, wonderful arrangements of hymns…and, as much as we all need to stop and relax and let our spirits be soothed we also don’t want to put everyone to sleep, so rest assured there will be some toe-tapping moments of enjoyment as well! We’re getting this sumptuous musical feast ready and we hope for YOU to be there!
