One
theme always comes to mind when we recall the story of Easter...grace!“Were It Not for Grace” chronicles the events
of Easter with Scripture-based narratives and songs while reminding us of the
wonderful victory of grace we have been so graciously given.
Following
the cantata, the “Hallelujah Chorus” will be sung by the choir and those of the
