The Bible and Handel's Messiah: Lenten Edition

Starting Wednesday, February 24, 2021 | 11:00 a.m. | Zoom

Please join us on Zoom during Lent on Wednesdays for music and biblical texts from Handel’s Messiah. Messiah tells the story of our Lord Jesus Christ and is one of the best-loved musical compositions of all time. In our study we are going to take advantage of that love and use it as an avenue into the biblical text on which Messiah is based. This 5-week presentation is designed to deepen our appreciation of both the words and the music of Handel’s oratorio. Contact Cheryl Brainard at [email protected] for more information.

Shannon joined St. James in August of 2018, moving here from central NC. Shannon most recently worked for WCPSS, as a Dance Teacher in multiple settings, teaching crafting skills through 4-H, as well as homeschooling her daughter. Shannon received both her Associates Degrees from Peace College, Raleigh, NC and attended NC State University majoring in the Masters in Teaching program.

Shannon enjoys pottery, dancing, playing the bagpipes, working on puzzles and working educating children. Children are truly the lifeforce of our future. Jesus asked for the children to be brought to Him. Patience, practice and perseverance are all important to building a strong foundation in a child's life. Let us empower our children to be strong Christians and feed them as Jesus fed the masses.

It is a privilege to work with the children of St. James Parish and the families of St. James. The love of Christ abounds within these walls.
