Keep From Singing?"
Community as a Gift from God
Deborah Govenor Choir Workshop
October 17-18, 2008
Gloria Dei Lutheran
Church in Coos Bay, Oregon, is very excited to host
nationally recognized clinician, sacred composer and
arranger Deborah Govenor. Sacred choral enthusiasts
would normally have to go to Portland or Seattle to
attend a clinic like this and pay twice as much. This
clinic is for choir directors, music leaders, worship
leaders, pastors and choral singers. The cost is $35.00
per person ($45.00 after September 15), which will include a music packet. The
workshop sessions will take place at the church.
