“TIDINGS OF JOY” SERVICE

On Sunday, December 15, 2024, the United Methodist Church at 247 Broad Street, Red Bank will once again trumpet in the season of Great Joy. At 7:00 pm that evening their special “Tidings of Joy” worship and candlelight service will recreate all the necessary Christmas context. The urgency, excitement, mystery, and hope of these joyous tidings will be kindled through readings and Christmas hymns, and especially by the dynamic music of Daniel Pinkham (1926-2006). His famous “Christmas Cantata” is simultaneously ancient, medieval, and modern. It will combine a vocal choir, brass, and the UMC Red Bank’s magnificent Hradetzky pipe organ into an undeniably manifest choir of angels. The UMCRB Handbell Choir will also be featured prominently. Don’t miss this joyous event!
