Join our Christmas Cantata – LOVE! by Joel Raney

Glen Mar’s Christmas Cantata is scheduled for Sunday, December 22 at both the 9:30 and 11:00 am Worship Services. Rehearsal starts on September 26, Thursdays from 7:00 to 7:30 pm.

This gospel-flavored musical reflects on the promise of peace delivered by the angels on the night of Jesus’ birth. An original composition, “Love Is Born” is used as musical bookends: its theme is briefly stated in the second movement and then returns in full-blown gospel style at the end to provide an emotion-filled climax. In between, the Christmas story is told through scriptural narration and familiar carols set in a variety of styles ranging from jazz to gospel to calypso.
