After seven years, the beloved Christmas concert is back. Join us Saturday, December 12, 2026, at 4 PM at Centenary United Methodist Church for "Sounds of the Season III: Go Tell It!", an evening of song, story, and celebration featuring the Centenary Mass Choir and special guests.

If you were with us in 2017 for the first "Sounds of the Season," or in 2019 for "Sounds of the Season II: Three-in-One," you know what a night this is. A lot has happened in seven years, including Centenary's 160th anniversary in 2025. Now the music is coming home for Christmas.

 

A Full Sensory Celebration

"Go Tell It!" tells the story of Jesus' birth through hearing, speaking, and going as messengers of the Good News. Feast your eyes on the sights of the decorations, the attire, and the performers. Feast your ears on the sounds: the lyrics, the melodies, the instruments, and the spoken word. Taste and see that the Lord is good, and be moved with anticipation, revelation, and jubilation.

Narrator Zakiya Larry Wolfe will guide the evening, with a welcome and prayer from Pastor Keith Caldwell. Expect everything from Spirituals to Gospel with a touch of Reggae and a Latin Fanfare.
