The St James Choral
Group completed their 19th year of Lenten presentations in 2007. Approximately 120 members have made up the
group since 1989.
During these 19 years,
the group has performed for more than 35,850 people and traveled over 8,304miles all over Northwest Ohio and Southeast
Michigan (plus 20 nautical miles).
The group presented it's
150th performance on Good Friday, 2005 at St. James.
The funding for the St.
James Choral Group has come from the generous free will offerings of the audience members at the churches and schools that
have hosted them.
Each year the group contributes
proceeds above their expenses to local charities and families in need. This year, a portion of the proceeds
will also help build much needed schools in Haiti--through a local organization.
This presentation makes
it possible for adults and children alike to walk through Jesus' Last Days, the agony and the triumph, from Palm
Sunday through Easter, from Jesus' point of view.
