This Sunday evening, December 6, the Music Ministry of First Baptist Church Brownwood will present its annual Christmas concert featuring music performed by the FBC Sanctuary Choir and Sanctuary Orchestra. The concert will be given during the regular Sunday evening worship hour, and will contain opportunities for audience participation, as well as solos and duets. Included on the program will be Christmas Day In the Morning, Shepherd’s Echo Carol, and God Bless Us, Everyone, as well as the familiar Christmas hymns “O Come, All Ye Faithful”, “The First Nowell,” and “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.” Also on the program will be Dr. Celeste Church and Dr. Diana Ellis singing “He shall feed His flock” from Handel’s Messiah.

“The Sanctuary Choir at FBC Brownwood is one of the finest volunteer church choirs that I have had the privilege to conduct” said Dr. Gregory Church, Minister of Music at the church. “It is always a pleasure to share music of the Christmas season as part of our ministry to our church and community,” he said.

The Sanctuary Choir and Orchestra are each made up of members of the FBC congregation, and students from the Howard Payne University Department of Music.

The concert, which is free and open to the public, will begin at 6:00 PM in the sanctuary of the historic church. FBC Brownwood is located at 208 Austin Avenue.
