Music for Worship

Worship at ‘Allen’ on Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday will include music presented by the Chancel Choir, Handbell Choir and a Children’s Ensemble.

The Chancel Choir will present selections from Praise the God of Resurrection, an Easter Cantata that features musical arrangements by Mark Hayes, Lloyd Larson, Joseph M. Martin and Ruth Elaine Schram, throughout the week. Editor Lloyd Larson writes: ‘Praise the God of Resurrection traverses the breadth of human emotion found in the passion story of our Lord. From joyous hosannas, to hours of solitude and rejection, to glorious alleluias, the pervading theme is that ultimately God is in control. Walking through the last days of Jesus’ earthly life, (this music) is a moving reminder of the power of the Living God.’

Shadows of Sacrifice, a Tenebrae Service by John Purifoy, will be presented by the Chancel Choir on Good Friday (7:00 p.m.).
