🎆 What a wonderful day Saturday was with the Choir of St. John’s Elora and their conductor, Dr. Patrick Murray!

We rehearsed Sarah Quartel’s “I Thank Thee God” in the morning and performed it in the afternoon with the Choir of St. John’s Elora in the middle of their spectacular concert.

📸 We’ve included some photos here, and you can see more photos on our website, choircamp.wordpress.com.

🙏 A great big THANK YOU to the Choir of St. John’s Elora and Dr. Patrick Murray for giving us this wonderful gift!
