Grace Concert Series
2025 Season
Rhythms of Life with the Harnsberger/Jones Marimba Duo
Saturday, January 25, 2025
On January 25, we gathered in person and online to watch the latest Grace Concert, Rhythms of Life, presented by the amazing Harnsberger/Jones Marimba Duo. The incredible acoustics in the sanctuary at Grace provided an excellent aural canvas for the marimbas' sound waves as they bounced off the walls and danced through the air. Andy Harnsberger and Caitlin Jones performed original works that were completely captivating and poignantly emotive.
If you missed this performance (or would like to revisit it), it is available to watch by clicking the video above, or visiting our Facebook page or YouTube Channel. You can also view the digital concert program here.
Giving also continues for Feed More. Please consider a donation, no matter how small, to support Feed More in their essential work in our community as they combat food insecurity. You may mail in an offering to the address below (making checks out to "Grace Baptist Church" with "concert series" in the memo), or give online here.
As always, we are grateful for your generosity and support of our ongoing mission work!
