Message: NOËL! A CELEBRATION OF FRENCH CAROLS
YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS WORSHIP THIS SUNDAY!
Yes, I absolutely DID start last week’s message with exactly the same words, but it’s true this week as well! This Sunday we will worship and praise God through music. UPA’s Director of Music, Allen LeVines, has put together a beautiful program including an expanded UPA choir and harp accompaniment. The theme of the program is French Carols so I’m guessing there are a few in there that we recognize.
From the very beginning of our history our ancestors have been worshiping the Great Divine through music because, so often, there are no words to share our praise. Music brings a full body, emotional experience to our praise that speaks what words cannot. At UPA this has become a tradition of our Advent season: to welcome in the Prince of Peace with the music of hope. I’m really looking forward to this Sunday’s service.
See you then!
Peace,
Cheryl
