This month we had a good turnout as we move toward Thanksgiving and Christmas with a special program highlighting “Elizabeth: A Time for Truth”. We also featured had more than our normal amount of special music along with the very special dramatic presentation by Geri Campbell.
Our music included a piano by Fred Scheffler and special vocal music with a Duet by Marlene Williams and Sandy Hayward (left photo below). Later, Alison Misere sang a solo to her son, Jacob (right photo). Actually, I think you can hear him helping, occasionally. This was a perfect segue to the dramatic presentation with Elizabeth and Baby John.
Geri Campbell played the part of Elizabeth. She wrote this dramatic presentation based on the Scriptural account of Elizabeth, the cousin of Mary and mother of John – The Baptist, from Luke chapter 1. She will also be performing this at the Creation Museum during their Christmas Season. However, this is the first performance of their season, a season premier! You can hear her presentation HERE. However, just hearing doesn’t do it the justice that it deserves and what you would see with her in the proper dress, etc. Geri did a very nice job and we’ll be having her back for other programs in the future. If you missed this, be sure to catch it around Christmas at the Creation Museum south of Cincinnati in Kentucky. Better yet, bring your family for a fun evening, there.
Of course, our luncheon program would not be finished without the great meals provided by Lisa Poe and our kitchen staff, servers, setup and decorating staff and other kitchen help. Thank you all for a fantastic job.
Next month, we will have another very special program on December 11, 2012 at 11AM. We will enjoy the music of Carillon Brass. This is a brass quintet by performers from the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra. I had the privilege of hearing them as they did their rehearsal in our auditorium on Monday. We are in for a real treat! They will be performing a program that is about the same as they will be doing at The Loft, downtown. This performance will be sure to get everyone into the Christmas spirit. Be sure to join us and bring your friends.
