Jan. 29th... "I Love To Tell The Story" with Dan & Cheryl Oie. This musical concert of worship featured sacred songs, hymns, arias, organ pieces and piano rhapsodies that celebrate the stories found in the Bible and that honor those who have created works of art telling of their own faith. Dan planned the worship concert to coincide with Calvary's reading of The Story. The project was also an opportunity to expose the congregation to music that typically may not be performed during a worship service, yet still has been written to glorify God. Worship song words Jan. 29th concert
