'Concert for Bibles' aims
to raise $100,000

THE Voices of Praise is to present a "Concert for Bibles" to help The Bible Society of Singapore (BSS) fund distribution of the Word of God to people everywhere who are too poor to afford a copy.


The 40-strong choir will render praises, spiritual songs, Gospel hymns and contemporary worship songs in English and Mandarin at Victoria Concert Hall on April 22, 2006 at 7.45 pm.


The highlight of the evening will be the Easter cantata entitled "Alive!". In the cantata are some of the important scenes and events of Christ's Passion, from the triumphal march into Jerusalem to the resurrection. Through songs and narration, one will witness the tender moments in the Upper Room, see Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane, catch glimpses of the cross, and behold the empty tomb.


Admission is by donation tickets of $20 or $50 obtainable from the BSS or Mr Michael Lim at Tel: 6337-3222, or by outright donations. The BSS aims to raise $100,000 from the concert.
