THE SHELTON CHILDREN'S CHOIR sings its rendition of "Oh Come,
All Ye Faithful" at Faith Lutheran Church on the Feast of the Epipha-
ny, which recalls when the Magi paid homage to Jesus Christ.
Children's Choir' shines a
light after a power outage
On the Twelfth Day of Christmas the chil-
dren gave to thee, a musical celebration of the
Epiphany.
A program of sacred songs and Holy Writ was
presented Saturday at Faith Lutheran Church
on the last evening of the Christmas season, an
OCcasion extolled in song and dance as the 12th
anctTtiurITffi-eiiFyeai -. The Fea:q Of
the Epiphany recalls the Visitation of the Magi,
wise men from the East who gave us the word
magic and who pay a visit to Jesus Christ in
• ae tospel According to Matthew:
"They saw the young child with Mary his
mother, and fell down, and worshipped him:
and when they had opened their treasures they
presented him gifts; gold, frankincense and
myrrh.-
Paul Nakhla and Susan Shoemaker presided
:? the gathering at 1212 Connection Street,
uemg director of the choral music program at
helton High School and she bein an or anizer
o ° g g
fthe Shelton Children's Choir and of the gath-
ering of those who came to hear them sing. The
rogram was billed as a "festival of light," with
nOemaker recalling that Jesus is described as
:the light of the world" in numerous passages of
me lible.
"THE LIGHT shines in the darkness and
that's what an epiphany is," she said.
A dictionary confirms this by stating that the
word "epiphany" comes to us from the Greeks
who used the word "epiphainein" when they
meant "to manifest" or "to show." The gathering
a ab.tltheran showed several dozen people
the skills of young singers who began the pro-
gram with their rendition of "Once in David's
Royal City."
The children sang other songs, intoning the
first few verses on their own and inviting the
audience to join them in singing subsequent
verses. Nakhla read a number of passages of the
Bible deemed appropriate to the occasion, start-
ing with the fall of Adam and Eve:
"They heard the voice of the Lord God walk-
ing in the garden in the cool of the day: and
Adam and his wife hid themselves from the
presence of the Lord God, amongst the trees
of the garden. And the Lord God called unto
Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
And he said, I heard thy voice in the gar-
den, and I was afraid, because I was naked
and I hid myself. And he said, Who told thee
