Music Ministry
Once Upon A Tree
by Pepper Choplin - Shawnee Press
The original words and music by Pepper Choplin will immerse your in the passion and intensity of the events of Holy Week. As the character of Luke is deeply touched by the story he is recording, the choir and soloist assume his role in the drama. Starting with Palm Sunday, it eloquently moves through the major events up to Good Friday and finally Easter.
Performed by the Jamestown UMC Chancel Choir on April 10, 2022 and
directed by Dr. Marc Foster.
"Music knows no national boundaries (unlike verbal languages) as it can speak directly to the heart, to the emotions. It is vital for music to be subject to the authority of the word of God and to serve the ministry of that word in our churches. Let it be said in the strongest possible terms that vibrant, lively, varied, engaging music is a huge boon, which significantly strengthens word ministry and enables believers to respond to God in heartfelt, genuine thankfulness, as well as in prayer and intercession."
