Choral Union On Tour: Sabbath in Kelowna

Choral Union is on tour in BC and as he did last summer, Clement Morton has agreed to send updates from the road for the President`s Page Blog.

Blessings pour forth on the Sabbath! After an amazingly restful night at the homes church members, we made our way to the Rutland Seventh-day Adventist Church in Kelowna. Here we were blessed to share the day with this amazing church family.

As we left the building we were shocked to see it had started snowing! After loading the bus for the ride through the mountains, we settled in for a long and chilly ride. The snowbanks at points were as high as the bus!

Coming down from the mountain pass we made it into Surrey at about 6 pm where we unloaded, warmed up and grabbed a bite to eat  before our concert at 7:30 pm. After the concert, many of the choir members dispersed to their homes or the homes of their friends. As the rest of us bedded down for the night at the church we could still hear the strains of the music we had just created echoing in the rafters. Bless the LORD for Music!
