The Spirit & Song Music Appreciation Concert was given on May 20th featuring not only our talented youth and children, but the entire Sanctuary Choir, the Bells of Joy, the Hands of Joy and Hands of Praise choirs.  We are extremely proud of our children and youth and of the music program at St. Matthew United Methodist Church.
