2021 Christmas at NEPC

Members of the Celestial Choir and the Chancel Choir formed the The Combined Choirs of Northeastern Presbyterian Church and presented “SIX LESSONS AND CAROLS FOR THE ADVENT SEASON" on Sunday, December 19, 2021. Dr. Laddie Bell directed and accompanied the choir.

The Lessons were introduced by Ms. Jaryn Gessesse. The readings were presented by Ian Thomas, Bria Cuff, Roderick Hill, Sylvia Samuel, Charles Webb and Natalie Keaton.

It was a beautiful presentation of song and verse so fitting to celebrate the Christmas season.

The church was beautifully decorated by Glynis Pegram-Higgs, Kathy Cuff and Miriam Pegram.

Rev. Dr. Willie Keaton spoke on the theme, Nothing is Impossible with God, extracted from Luke 1:26-38.

The celebration ended with the congregation joining the choir to sing the Hallelujah Chorus, after which treats were provided as a small parting gift.
