On Sunday, March 1st, Pacific Mennonite Children’s Choir and the Abbotsford Youth Orchestra present a free community hymn sing.
The program will feature classic and contemporary hymns such as “All Creatures of Our God and King”, “I Can Only Imagine” by Mercy Me, music from the Iona Community and special features such as “Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring” by J.S. Bach and “Amazing Grace” arranged by Canadian composer Stephen Hatfield.
Admission is free. There will be an offering taken to raise funds for the PMCC/AYO trip to Scotland in July, 2020. Led by Calvin Dyck and Betty-Ann Braun, the youth have the unique opportunity to visit the Iona Community, participate in the Stirling Bridge Festival in Edinburgh, and perform in St. Giles Cathedral, Iona Cathedral, Stirling Castle and the Church of the Holy Rood.
Other highlights include a visit to Fingal’s Cave, and a performance in Abbotsford House, Scotland on Canada Day – the former home of Sir Walter Scott. This tour to Scotland will provide over 50 youth from the Fraser Valley with the unique opportunity to collaborate with musicians from around the world, pursue excellence in music, and experience the richness of Scottish culture and history.
