Back by popular demand, the Philadelphia Handbell Ensemble returns to help us “ring in” the Christmas Season.  Last year they dazzled us with not only seasonal repertoire, but mastered timeless works like Bach’s Gigue Fugue!  Do not miss another great opportunity to hear this ensemble of incredible volunteer musicians!

As we journey through Advent and into the week of Christmas, join us for a Christmas Festival.  To celebrate the season, the festival will include music by each of Trinity’s four choirs, seasonal music played on Trinity’s Reuter organ, and congregational singing of some favorite carols!  The candlelight celebration will be preceded by dinner at 5:00 p.m.  Please contact the church office to RSVP for dinner.

Instruments of Praise Singers is a local group from Cedar Crest Bible Fellowship Church located in Allentown, PA. They have been in existence for about 20 years and specialize in Christian worship and praise with their unique blend of voices and repertoire of songs. They love the Lord and consider it a privilege to sing His praises. IOP periodically leads worship or provides special music for their home church but they have also performed many concerts throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Some of their venues have included MayFair, Waldheim’s, Allentown, Bethlehem, Lehighton, Lancaster, Stroudsburg, and Toms River. IOP also traveled on a short-term missions trip to Austria several years ago to perform various outdoor and indoor concerts. Their repertoire can include musical tracks, live music, and a cappella style songs.
