First United Methodist Church: The Road to Bethlehem Christmas Cantata
December 15 @ 7:00 p.m.
December 17 @ 11:00 a.m.
Bethlehem seemed an unlikely destination for the fulfillment of God’s promise to send a Messiah. Bethlehem. Why would anyone–especially the Creator of the universe–choose a little remote village? But as Scripture records, the road to Bethlehem was the road that ultimately led to God! The First United Methodist Church Chancel Choir is excited to present Lloyd Larson’s The Road to Bethlehem. Our hope is that the the music and the narration will help you meditate on the coming of the Messiah and the remarkable possibilities that can occur in seemingly unremarkable places. Join us as we embark upon the journey leading to Jesus’ birth on the road to Bethlehem. Admission is Free.
December 24th 5:00 p.m.
