Messiah Sing Along and Nutcracker Ballet

The next Messiah sing-along hosted by the Washington DC and Annandale Stakes will be held, not this December (as one might expect from past years), but next spring, as part of our Easter season preparations. This sing-along will feature movements from Messiah that concern the Savior's passion, crucifixion, and resurrection, as well as the consequences of his atonement for our own lives. Please mark your calendars for March 22, 2020, 7 p.m., at the Visitors' Center; come join with us there to worship the Lamb of God, who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords.  Flyer is attached.

The Kirov Academy is presenting a free preview of their Nutcracker Ballet at the Washington DC Temple Visitor Center at 7pm on November 16, 2019.  Flyer is attached.
