WHAT MAKES US WHO WE ARE?:

AN ECUMENICAL CONVERSATION

What happens when a Roman Catholic Priest, an Episcopalian priest, a United Church of Christ pastor, and a Presbyterian pastor get together? We aren't sure either, but we're going to find out, and you're invited, too!

As a way to get to know better our neighbors, the clergy of the First Presbyterian Church (USA), the Holy Family Catholic Church, the St. John United Church of Christ, and the Trinity Episcopal Church invite you to attend a four-part conversation in community. The title of this series will be: "What Makes Us Who We Are?"

While it is easy to recognize all the ways we are different, these conversations aim to help us discover all the ways we are already similar and share common interests and characteristics. This will be a time of learning and laughter, and each discussion will conclude with light refreshments - a feature sure to be the first thing that binds us in common.

The dates for these lively (and informative) conversations will be:

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 12TH

First Presbyterian Church

WEDNESDAY, JULY 10TH

Trinity Episcopal Church

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 14TH

Holy Family Catholic Church

Each conversation begins at 7:00 pm and is free to everyone.

MAY 23-24, 2020!
 

Calling all GOOD NEWS alumni and sponsors! We are so excited to announce the 50th year of GOOD NEWS will be celebrated with a reunion and concert, May 23–24, 2020! We will rehearse on
Saturday and Sunday afternoon, with the big reunion concert at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, May 24 (Memorial Day weekend) at Lincoln Christian University. Mark your calendar now! We will bring
back as many of the former GOOD NEWS directors as possible. The Reunion Choir will sing a favorite song from each decade as well as hear from the current Good News and T.R.A.S.H. This will be a blast! Please plan to join us!

GOOD NEWS PUBLISHING COMPANY began in 1971. Created from the Youth Choir of Lincoln Christian Church, Keith Davenport added the dimension of touring with the “Good News” of Jesus. There have been close to 1,000 students who have been in GOOD NEWS over the last 50 years, (we are still counting!) with hundreds of dedicated sponsors who have traveled with our students.

GOOD NEWS has shared the Good News of Jesus Christ in concerts in 43 states and Canada. On our 2019 tour next week we add #41 (Utah), #42 (Montana) and #43 (North Dakota).

GOOD NEWS alumni and sponsors (and parents!), we have created several ways for you to stay in contact to receive all of the information about the Reunion Concert.

To update your contact information, register for the Reunion Concert, send e-invites to fellow GOOD NEWSers, share photos (we need your photos, especially the formal group shots), videos, and stories, and once you have registered to sing in the Reunion Concert, receive a link to download the concert music, go to: www.lincolnchristianchurch.org/GN50 , Check social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) with #GoodNews50, email us at GN50@lincolnchristianchurch.org.

Join us in May 2020 to celebrate the legacy and continued ministry of GOOD NEWS! We can’t wait to see all of you gathered together to once again proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ in song!
