Each year, the talented musicians of Messiah Lutheran Church take part in a festival of Joyful Noise titled “Ring and Sing”.  This year’s Ring and Sing Concert was a smashing success.  Messiah is blessed with an incredible array of talent including the Cherub Choir, the Seraph Chime Choir, The Instrumental Ensemble, the Notabella Bell Choir, the Youth Choir and a wide array of other soloists and ensembles.  Even the audience got into the act.  The performances from this years concert are below. Please enjoy the video recordings and share them with your friends.  We look forward to seeing you at next year’s concert.  Special thanks to the Ring and Sing Director Rhonda Gaede, our Director of Music Ministries Lois Graff, our Choir Director Randall Fields and all of the staff and musicians who worked so hard to make this year’s Ring and Sing such a success.
