How we reach out
“For the glory of God and my neighbors’ good.” This two-part phrase, turning us both toward God in devotion and toward our neighbors in service, adequately describes the church’s understanding of the nature of Christian faith.
We live out that faith in community and while that community may begin within the congregation, the outreach ministries provided by LCOB are vital not only to our local community but also extend to our community of brothers and sisters around the world. Some of these ministries are long term and ongoing service projects, while others may originate as a response to an immediate personal need or world event in which LCOB feels led to respond.
Jesus went about saving the world by serving its people. Because we believe in His message, we continuously seek to do the same.
Two Rivers Chamber Music String Quartet to Perform
The Two Rivers Chamber Music String Quartet will perform a Starlight Tea Concert next Saturday, March 22, at 7:00 p.m. in the Sanctuary. Based in Maryland and founded by identical twin brothers, Michael and Matthew Polonchak in 2013, the group has quickly become one of the most sought-after chamber music ensembles in the Mid-Atlantic region.
The classically trained musicians maintain an active schedule presenting full-length concerts and performing for special events primarily in the greater Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. areas. Three of the musicians started their study on their instruments at ages 5, 6, and 8! They have performed with the Air Force Strings, the National Philharmonic, Maryland Symphony, and the Harrisburg Symphony, to name a few. Having an extensive repertoire, they enjoy performing from Bach and Mozart to film scores.
The free Starlight Tea concert series is supported by patrons and offerings received at concerts. Tea and cookies will be served following the concert. Please come and join us for this delightful program.
