August 7, 2005: Second ‘Christian Music in the Park’ – Milton

Sunday, August 7^th marked second ‘Christian Music in the Park’ sponsored by the Milton Christian Churches Working Together group at Milton’s Victoria Park.

The day’s program included several local worship teams and singers including the Praise teams from Southside Community Church, Grace Anglican Church and Burloak Christian Fellowship. As well, singer Carey Grant from Guelph, Nicollette from Toronto and a local Gospel group called Country Gospel Singers entertained us from 2pm to 6pm.

The weather was perfect as was the fellowship and music. People came with picnic lunches and snacks and water were made available at a very reasonable cost. These events do have a cost involved for such things as having toilets available and the use of the park’s facilities.

A basket was handed around and prayed over that all costs would be covered. We encourage all local residents and those from further a field to come and enjoy these summer music festivals in Milton.

The afternoon was another wonderful example of what can be done in our community to bring Christians together for praise and worship of our one Lord, Jesus Christ. For a report on the first ‘Music in the Park’ event in June, please click here.

Lorrette Shermet and the rest of the MCCWT committee are to be congratulated and thanked for organizing this day. Thanks also to the worship teams that gave up their Sunday afternoon to bless Milton! Lorette has said that there will be more ‘Christian Music in the Park’ events and even some evening ones are planned.

Here are some pictures of the afternoon.
