The Senior Saints are starting their 2023 concert season with 74 singers and instrumentalists, age 58 to 91, from 29 area churches. The Saints will be presenting 14 concerts from August through September. Seven of the concerts are open to the public. Their program this year is \u201cThe Music of Our Hearts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Songs about music include Put Another Nickel In, The Sound of Music, His Eye is on the Sparrow, and In My Heart There Rings a Melody. The Saints will sing several packages of songs from their childhood, their teen years, and their time of dating. They will honor our country with a package of patriotic songs and will end with songs that express our faith in Jesus Christ. The audience is encouraged to sing along. Between packages individual saints share stories about the different seasons of their lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Saints\u2019 goal is to be entertaining and bring smiles but also to bring a message of hope found in Jesus Christ. Their program each year is written and directed by Marsha Wright.  They are sponsored by Grabill Missionary Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
