You're invited to a Christmas Cantata and Carol Sing on Sunday, December 15th at 3 PM at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, Champaign. Featuring combined choirs from ELCA churches in the C-U area, this cantata is also a fund-raiser for Lutheran Disaster Response. A free-will offering will be taken that benefits clean-up and recovery efforts following this year's devastating storms and floods in Florida and the southeast. Refreshments will follow. Bring your neighbors and friends for a wonderful Christmas concert!
