Sing to God, sing praises to his name;
lift up a song to him who rides upon the clouds;
his name is the LORD, exult before him!
~ Psalm 68:4
On Saturday evening, May 26, 2001, parish members enjoyed the combined voices of the North Shore Christian Men's choir with the Festivals of Male Praise from the United Kingdom for an International Festival of Praise at the A.J. Gordon Memorial Chapel at Gordon College in Wenham, MA. Also performing at the concert were Soprano Elizabeth Printy, Mezzo-Soprano Briana Shaw Rossi and Christian jazz fusion group FIRE BY NIGHT.
The Festivals of Male Praise were on the last leg of a two week tour of Canada and Northeast United States. It was an incredible evening of song. There were an estimated 1,500 people in attendance. We are all looking forward to the release of the CD of the concert and for the announcement of next year's concert!
