LINCOLN
- On Sunday, Lincoln Christian Church hosted the 27th Harvest of
Talents Musical Offering for World Hunger. As always, the many
talented local musicians and the crowd came together to express to
love for people around the world. The funds raised will help feed
hungry and hurting people.

Keith Snyder welcomed the crowd that filled the
sanctuary as he said music moves and stirs our emotions in ways
pictures cannot. Snyder said we can rewrite the stories with
generous support and he thanked God for the stories the music can
tell as the money raised helps people.
This year’s theme was a Disney Extravaganza with many songs from
Disney movies both old and new. Other musical styles included
classical, sacred, pop, and Broadway.
Linda Storm began the day’s music playing instrumental versions of
songs from the Star War’s movies.

Before a free will offering was taken up, Pat Snyder told stories of the
starving children these events raise money for. She said our imagination should
visualize healthy food, clean water and God’s love being provided to hungry
people. Snyder asked everyone to donate to show love before praying for the
offering.
The Harvest of Talents Musical Offering for World Hunger provided an afternoon
of great entertainment raising a record $5,035.05 to help feed the hungry.
