HATTIESBURG, MS (WDAM) -
The Hattiesburg Concert Association's
Meistersingers Chamber Ensemble is hosting a benefit concert to help Westminster
Presbyterian Church.
The Meistersingers originally
sang and performed to "Passion, Love, and Flowers" just one hour
before the February 10 tornado ripped through their church, Westminster Presbyterian
Church.
Left without their church
home, the Meistersingers have decided to give an encore performance as a
benefit in order to help their church.
Along with allowing
Westminster Presbyterian to hold their worship services in their building,
Parkway Heights United Methodist Church is also acting as the host for the
encore benefit concert.
"The concert is free and open
to the public just as the last one was, just as all the destination series
concerts are for the Hattiesburg Concert Association," said Westminster
Presbyterian Church Choir Director, Connie Roberts. "At this concert we are
asking if people are able, if they would give a donation towards the rebuilding
of the Westminster sanctuary, which has housed and hosted so many concerts in
the Hattiesburg area."
The Meistersingers Chamber Ensemble
will sing an encore performance of "Passion, Love, and Flowers" on Sunday
at 3 p.m. at Parkway Heights United Methodist.
