LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Children’s Choir at United Christian Parish (UCP), fondly called iSing, rocked the house in their first two performances of the season.

First the children shared their music with the Buckingham Ladies at their annual Christmas celebration and then chose two of their favorites songs to perform in the 26th annual Festival of Music.

With only one more scheduled performance that includes both the music and a play, the public is invited to join them Sunday, Dec. 11, at 10 a.m.

This performance is no charge but a free will offering will be taken.

The seven songs are part of a musical called “Shepherds, Sheep and a Savior” a comical look at how the lowest of low (shepherds!) got invited into the greatest story ever told.

It is at times funny but the children do a fantastic job of keeping the story, performance and fun in balance for a really fine finished production.

The singers and actors range from kindergarten to sixth grade and have been practicing since October.

As a special feature this week, before and after the play, which is offered during the normally scheduled service at UCP Sunday morning, Belles With Bells will get the community into the spirit of things with several beautifully played songs on the English Hand bells.

UCP is located at 745 N Brush St in Lakeport.
