The sounds of seasonal music filled the air at St. Clare’s Anglican Church near Winchester, when the North Grenville Concert Choir performed on Fri., Dec. 13. More than 90 people attended the fundraising event. “The audience was thrilled with the presentation” and the opportunity for fellowship which followed the concert, reports Bob Weagant of South Mountain. Rev. Canon John Wilcox, incumbent at St. Clare’s Anglican, commented, following the event: “Listening to the time-honoured carols along with present-day favourites helped to rekindle in our hearts just what is important about Christmas; sharing the birth of the Christ Child with family and friends.” He noted it was wonderful having the North Grenville Concert Choir “share their love of music with us,” before thanking the choir for a great evening of music and memories.
