Reclaiming Christianity 2010 Conference in Raleigh

Written by St. John's MCC | Print | E-mail

Reclaiming Christianity Conference Raleigh 2010St. John’s MCC was founded upon the idea that all people deserve a welcome, affirming place to worship their Creator. In fact, the Metropolitan Community Church movement began when one gay man dared to say, “Yes! I can worship God too!”

But not all churches agree with us. There are very few who are as open and affirming as St. John’s. Our friends at the Gay Christian Network would like to change that. They have helped to organize a conference on Reclaiming Christianity that is set for Saturday, June 19th, in Raleigh. The details are posted on a special website: www.ChristiansWhoLove.com.

If you click on the flyer image (right), you can download a PDF flyer that you can give to any friend who wants to transform his or her church into a loving, inclusive congregation. You can also send your friend a link to the Conference website. When you do, you will be doing God’s work.

 

Chord of Many Strands

Written by St. John's members of the TGMC | Print | E-mail

First-Ever Concerts with The Durham Chorale Set for June 2010

Song of WisdomThe Triangle Gay Men's Chorus joins forces with The Durham Chorale to present "Chord of Many Strands." The concert will serve as our 2009-2010 season finale. Performances are scheduled for 3 pm, Sunday June 13 at First Presbyterian Church, 305 East Main Street in Durham, and for 8 pm, Saturday, June 19 in Fellowship Hall, 3313 Wade Avenue in Raleigh.

Each chorus will present individual selections, and then combine to present the featured work,"Song of Wisdom," composed by North Carolina native Joseph M. Martin.

"Song of Wisdom" is an uplifting choral and instrumental experience based on the popular children's book Old Turtle. Douglas Wood's classic story is a powerful acknowledgement of God's supreme love for the Earth and its inhabitants. Joseph Martin transforms the many characters and moods of the book into a musical fantasy that employs abundant text painting and musical imagery.

TGMC Artistic Director and Conductor John-Philip Mullinax will lead the choruses in the performances of the work, and Durham Chorale Conductor Melody Zentner will serve as Narrator.

Tickets will be $12.00 in advance at tgmchorus.org, and will be available for $15.00 at the door.

Triangle Gay Mens Chorus Holiday Concert

Written by St. John's MCC | Print | E-mail

TGMC Velvet Ribbons Holiday Concert“Velvet Ribbons”
A Holiday Celebration

Sunday, December 6, 2009 Durham
Saturday December 12, 2009 Raleigh

The Triangle Gay Mens Chorus will ring in the Holidays with “Velvet Ribbons,” a multicultural smorgasbord of warm musical treats with a Southwestern twist on December 6 and 12, 2009.

A portion of the proceeds from these concerts will benefit the Human Rights Campaign Foundation.

We are introducing new discounted ticket prices as well as Premium Seating with these performances.

We will present “Velvet Ribbons” on Sunday afternoon, December 6 at 3pm at First Presbyterian Church, 305 East Main Street in Durham.

Our second performance will be on Saturday evening, December 12 at 8pm, at Fellowship Hall, located at 3313 Wade Avenue in Raleigh.

The first half of the musical program will feature Conrad Susa’s “Carols and Lullabies – Christmas in the Southwest.” The composer describes the work as “A collection of traditional Spanish carols, with their artful simplicity, juggled into a narrative with an overriding image of a Southwestern piñata party.”

In the second half of the program, we’ll mix things up with holiday music of various styles, including the touching pop favorite “Hard Candy Christmas.”

Adult general admission tickets are $12.00 in advance, or $15.00 at the door. We’ve also lowered our online ticketing charge to just $1.

Advance tickets can be purchased online at tickets.tgmchorus.org or from TGMC members.
