Maria Shiphrah Dalton Publications: Reformation Heritage Choir Christmas Concert

Jeremiah 31:7-14

This is what the Lord says: "Sing with joy for Jacob; shout for the greatest of nations. Make your praises heard, and say, 'O Lord, save your people, the remnant of Israel.' See, I will bring them from the land of the north and gather them from the ends of the earth. Among them will be the blind and the lame, expectant mothers and women in labor; a great throng will return. They will come with weeping; they will pray as I bring them back. I will lead them beside streams of water on a level path where they will not stumble, because I am Israel's father, and Ephraim is my firstborn son. "Hear the word of the Lord, O nations; proclaim it in distant coastlands: 'He who scattered Israel will gather them and will watch over his flock like a sheperd.' For the Lord will ransom Jacob and redeem them from the hand of those stronger than they. They will come and shout for joy on the heights of Zion; they will rejoice in the bounty of the Lord--the grain, the new wine and the oil, the young of the flocks and herds. They will be like a well-watered garden, and they will sorrow no more. Then maidens will dance and be glad, young men and old as well. I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow. I will satisfy the priests with abundance, and my people will be filled with my bounty," declares the Lord.

Reformation Heritage Choir Christmas Concert

Our family Christmas Concert got postponed and that's why we sang Christmas songs in February. It went really well!

The children all recieved certificates.

Half-circle set up for O Come O Come Emmanuel.

I made a cake for afterwards. It had all the children's names on it, and each child wanted the piece with their name on it. Because of this, some of the children recieved larger pieces than others. :)
