This community outreach worship service and concert will be presented first at Brainerd Presbyterian Church at 10:45 a.m., and again at 6 p.m. at Red Bank United Methodist on Sunday, Dec. 14.
The program includes “The Many Moods of Christmas, Suite 2” arranged by Robert Shaw and Robert Russell Bennett, “Silent Night” arranged by George Hammett, and “The Song of Christmas” arranged by Roy Ringwald as recorded by Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians. All selections are traditional in nature with fresh and exciting arrangements which make them ever-new.
One highlight of the program will feature legendary radio broadcaster, Earl Freudenberg who will narrate “The Song of Christmas” with text taken from the pages of the Holy Bible.
