Gospel Choir Performs for the 50th
Anniversary
The weekend of April 19th
the College was celebrating its 50th
Anniversary, and the school’s
Gospel choir treated the guests with live music.
The President of the Gospel Choir, Barbara Roberts,sang a solo of the song “The Motherless
Child”. She and the rest of the Gospel Choir sang severalsongs, such as “Lord help me say yes”,“Jesus is
listening”, and “Great is thy Faithfulness”. All of the songs could be defined with one word; soulful. The
final song that they sang brought the audience involved in the music as well. Eventually everyone was
singing and dancing with the choir. According to the club’s page, “The purpose of the club is to
inspire and enlighten people about the power of faith and encourage them to find a positive
outlook on life.” They certainly gave the audience that day a positive performance that left them
feeling uplifted and inspired with faith.
The Gospel Choir will perform again in the Spring Concert on Friday May 1st at the
Middlesex County College Performing Arts Center. The doors open at 6:30 pm and the show
starts at 7 pm. The admission to the concert is free.
