SHERBURNE - The Sherburne Community Chorus presents “A Messiah Concert and Sing Along” at 3 p.m., Sunday, December 22 at the Sherburne United Church of Christ.

Come and enjoy the Christmas selections of The Messiah by George Frideric Handel and sing along with the Choruses and interspersed Christmas Carols.

Daisy Lawrence, soprano, Emma Jones, mezzo-soprano, Matthew Green, tenor, and Bruce Paulson, bass, will provide the solos in between the choral selections. The concert will be directed by Michael Moren and accompanied by Winnie Sortman on the organ and Michael Tefft on the trumpet.
