Church of the Crossroads to present Holden singalong

Advertiser Staff

A Holden Evening Prayer Sing Along, a Feast of the Epiphany celebration with music, readings, meditation and dance, will be held at 7 p.m. Sunday at Church of the Crossroads, 1212 University Ave.

Copies of the musical score will be distributed; the Crossroads' Choir will be seated among the congregation to support the singing. Crossroads' pastor, the Rev. Neal MacPherson, will serve as cantor, with a reading by United Methodist Rev. Barbara Grace Ripple.

Soloists include soprano Linda Rich and baritone Eldon Wegner with Claire Rivero on the Celtic harp and liturgical dancing by Kathy Maddux.

The Holden Evening Prayer was written by composer Marty Haugen in 1985-86 while he was musician-in-residence at the Lutheran Retreat Center at Holden Village, a year-round ecumenical center in the North Cascade Mountains.

Information: Don Conover, minister of music, 256-7212.
