Interfaith Service

























St. Mel will be joining choirs from Valley Beth Shalom, St. Peter Armenian Church and The Faithful Central Bible Church at an Interfaith Service at Valley Beth Shalom in Encino(http://www.vbs.org/) on March 13, 2009 at 8 pm.

This event is open to everyone (no tickets required) and is organized by Dr. Noreen Green.
In Noreen's words: "The service is about sharing our musical and religious traditions. The VBS choir and Cantor will lead a traditional Shabbat service, then our guest choirs will perform for each other and finally we will all sing together in the spirit of unity! The Community is invited to share in this uplifting service."

Guest choirs were asked to pick 2 songs from their traditional repertoire. St. Mel Parish Singers and Handbell Choir will be performing AVE VERUM by W.A. Mozart and BREATHE by M. Barnett.

Ensemble pieces are: WHEN YOU BELIEVE from Prince of Egypt, HALLELUYAH (Israeli), HODU AL ERETZ ( a gospel like number in unison) and HINEI MA TOV (round). A group rehearsal is scheduled at VBS on Wednesday, March 11 at 7:30 pm.
