Kensington Congregational Church welcomes the Nottingham Brass Quintet

Kensington Congregational Church welcomes the Nottingham Brass Quintet to worship: 10 AM Sunday, Dec. 5

KENSINGTON – Renewing a favorite holiday tradition, the Nottingham Brass Quintet will play for Sunday morning worship Dec. 5 at Kensington Congregational Church, 108 Amesbury Road, Kensington. Worship begins at 10 AM.

“The Brass” were not able to play last year as the church was meeting online then due to COVID.

That one-year hiatus now makes their return all the more special, according to Interim Minister Jeff MacDonald.

“Having these talented players share their Advent music with us will be a moving and memorable highlight of this holy season,” said the Rev. MacDonald.

As the church aims to keep everyone safe, masks are required for adults and school-aged children. Musicians are taking appropriate precautions as well.

Kensington Congregational Church is located on Route 150 in the center of town. To reach the church, email kcc1737@yahoo.com or call 603.772.5821.

According to Cornerstone VNA President/CEO Julie Reynolds, RN, MS, “We are honored to run the event in accordance with Jane’s wishes for many years to come, thus providing a legacy to Jane’s goodwill.”

 

Community members are welcome to participate in this annual holiday tradition to honor, remember and celebrate those who have had a special impact on their lives. With each $5 donation, a tribute name will be added to a holiday light at Cornerstone VNA and will be a part of a virtual celebration. The virtual Lights of Love event will be available for viewing at cornerstonevna.org/lightsoflove starting at 4:30pm on December 1st and can be viewed and shared throughout the holiday season.

 

Hundreds of lights will shine on each tribute name, and community members are welcome to visit the Lights of Love display at 178 Farmington Road in Rochester, NH, starting on December 2nd. Visit cornerstonevna.org/lightsoflove for more information on reserving lights and to sign up to receive special event notifications. Please submit your Lights of Love order by November 15.
