Musical Director Lorna Palmer and Kerygma (The Good News Choir) presented a great selection of hymns, carols and gospel songs at an Evening of Celebration Praise in Lisburn Cathedral on Saturday 17 November. 

The recently formed Junior Choir joined with the senior choir as together they sang, ‘We are all God’s children’ ‘Jesus loves me’, ‘No turning back’ and ‘A Christmas blessing’. The soloists were Claire Warburton, Clover Watts and Hayley Howe (violin).  The special guest was Lagan Valley MP Sir Jeffrey Donaldson. 

The compere for the evening was the Revd Stephen Smyth, Rector of Kilmore and Inch, who also gave a short closing address.  

The cross–community choir has been proclaiming the gospel through a variety of musical styles and genres since 2015. Musical Director, Lorna Palmer, formed the choir for the Year of Mission at Bishop Harold Miller’s invitation and he remains their patron.
