Bethany Lutheran Church in Cedar Rapids

On Saturday, January 6, Bethany Lutheran Church in Cedar Rapids revisits the joy of Christmas and explores the meaning of Epiphany through sacred music, word and art. This year's theme, "Go Light Your World", will focus on the candle burning in every soul. The concert will include different styles of music presented by various ensembles including organ, piano, strings, brass, bells, choir, and audience participation. New this year is a special community Epiphany Choir and a guest performance by the Alma Turechek String Trio from Coe College.

Concert times are 3 pm and 7 pm on January 6, 2007 at Bethany Lutheran Church, 2202 Forest Drive SE (across from Washington High School). Admission is free, so plan to arrive early for general seating. Free transportation is available for the elderly and homebound.
