"If Jesus Had Not Come", a Christmas musical
2023-12-17 18:00 - 19:00 (America/Chicago) | Harmony Baptist Church, Galesburg, IL, 61401, United States
A mix of choral and drama, this musical mimics the old film, “It’s a Wonderful Life” in which George is shown what life would be like if
he had never existed. One of the lines reads ” One man’s life touches to many others. When he’s not there, it leaves an awfully
big hole.” So this musical explores the question, “what would be different if Jesus had not been born over 2000 years ago? How would life then and now be different?”
This program is free and open to the public. There will be no offering taken, and light refreshments will be served after the event.
Please join us in celebrating the birth of Christ at Harmony Baptist Church, 746 Hawkinson Ave. Galesburg, IL
