On Friday, April 19th, Brownsville Community Church will sponsor the first of a series of free concerts open to the public in 2019. The first concert will be a Good Friday Concert starting at 1:30 which will be followed by a brief service at 2:30.
The April 19 concert will include a program of contemplative music as we consider the meaning of Good Friday. A variety of local musicians will be offering their gifts to lead us in a concert expressed through piano, organ, brass and vocals. They will come together for your enjoyment representing artists of all ages featuring the treasured works of Bach and Brahms as well as some original compositions just to name a few.
Easter Sunday celebrations on April 21 will start with an outdoor sunrise service at 7:30 a.m. on the hill above Albert Bridge School, followed by a community breakfast at 8:00 a.m. and an Easter Sunday service at 9:30 a.m. at the church. There will be no Sunday School on Easter morning.
The free-to-the public concerts and community events are organized by the Brownsville Community Church Pastor and Music & Choir Director, Reverend Christian Huebner and the church’s volunteer team. The Brownsville Community Church is located at 66 Brownsville-Hartland Road, between Albert Bridge School and the Brownsville Town Hall.
