Christmas cantata at Calkins

Posted

MILANVILLE, PA — The Calkins Baptist Church will present its annual Christmas cantata on Saturday, December 12 and Sunday, December 13 in the historic Calkins Baptist Church Sanctuary, located at 527 Calkins Rd. The Saturday matinee will be at 2 p.m., with the Sunday performance beginning at 7 p.m. For both shows, a staffed on-site nursery will be available, and following the Sunday evening performance, a reception will be held, free and open to the public, where refreshments will be served.

This year’s cantata will feature the program “Ten Thousand Hallelujahs,” a Christmas musical by Ron and Shelly Hamilton. It tells the story of Mary Snyder, a woman who celebrates Christmas year-round. When she learns that she has only a few months to live and meets a nurse whose bitterness has left her with a distaste for Christmas, Mary makes it her final mission to show the nurse the holiday’s true meaning. The story is interspersed with songs performed by a live choir. Call 580/729-7017.
