SPHS Chorale

On Thursday March 14, 2019 Senior Luncheons resumed in Ellis Hall at Peoples UMC. Preceding the meal, those who arrived early could sit down and talk with friends, the staff, and people who might come for these events only. Coffee and tea were available for early arrivals. At 11:30 AM the entertainment had arrived and most of the guests as well. The entertainment on this day were senior members of the SPHS Chorale. 20 in number they were accompanied by their director, Michelle Snow. They began with a Pentatonix number and most of the numbers that followed were all done accapela.  In the middle of the full group there were two or three numbers by a boy’s group, all of whom were part of the Chorale. Before the final number, two of the boys that are members of the cast of the upcoming high school musical, “Newsies”, sang numbers from that musical. The musical will be staged at the high school May 2-5.  Part of the donation for the meal would be shared with the music department as well as providing a meal for the students and director.

Ending number Thanks to all of you for your performance.

Our next Senior Luncheon

The meal that followed the entertainment and prepared by Brad Morrison and assisted by a kitchen crew was appropriate for a date approaching St. Patrick’s Day. Corned beef, cabbage, carrots and potatoes made up the main course while Irish bread was a popular inclusion on the menu. The dessert was a brownie with green frosting. Coffee, tea and water filled out the meal.

There were 28 members of the church that assisted in serving the meal as well as setting up tables and chairs and then taking them down after most of the folks had left. What a great crew appeared on this occasion as well as helped in calling all of the invitees. 52 guests from the community appreciated the entertainment, the meal, the service and the fellowship.

April 11, 2019 will be the next date for the Senior Community Luncheon. We hope to see you there!
