Time is drawing near for the Festival of the Nativity and excitement is building. Each night of the festival, there will be exceptional musical performances by members of our stake and guests from Clarksville and Nashville.
In addition to our local performers, on Friday you will want to invite your friends to hear the beautiful voice of Velma Williams from Faith Outreach Church in Clarksville and the Nashville Saints Community Choir and Orchestra performing their 25th year of The Messiah.
On Saturday, we will be privileged to hear the Madison Street United Methodist Church Bell Choir from Clarksville, the Flute Quartet who are members of Clarksville's Cumberland Winds and the Tripp Family who sing, play the harp and piano.
Sunday brings the Woodwinds Quintet from the Cumberland Winds, Brad Hull and Tim Gates from the acclaimed Due West and Dan Truman from the famous group, Diamond Rio in Nashville, all followed by the live satellite broadcast of the First Presidency Christmas Devotional featuring the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
All displays and performances are free to the public and we encourage you to invite everyone you know. The performance schedule is on the nativity brochure, and you can get copies from our ward nativity rep, Jen Grant.
We still need volunteers (MANY) and nativity sets to display (MANY) so please sign up either on the web or on paper and turn in your registration to the Jen Grant. And don't forget the deadline for ordering poinsettias is Sunday, Nov. 20. These beautiful flowers help with decorating the festival and make wonderful gifts at the same time. Please give your orders to Mitzie Thompson.
It is through your efforts that this wonderful event occurs each year, and we thank you for volunteering and publicizing it to your friends and associates.
