Potluck and Piano - Wednesday, July 9

On Wednesday, July 9, at 5:00 pm, we will have a potluck in Fellowship Hall followed by an evening of beautiful music in the Sanctuary. Christian Gonzales is a recent graduate of WIU with a Masters in Piano Performance. He has invited his friend Denzel Abarquez to join him. They will be performing several piano duets. There will also be a time of hymn-singing. A love offering will be received to thank them for their gift of music. Christian has been playing for worship at the Wesley Foundation at WIU. During his time at WIU, Denzel played for Wesley UMC.
