Just Voices and Pandora concerts celebrate Earth Day
Make plans to hear Just Voices and Pandora, a woman’s chorus, in an Earth Day celebration, April 21, at Covenant Presbyterian or Monday, April 22, at Virginia Highland Church.
Just Voices and Pandora celebrate Earth Day with performances of sacred and secular choral works. The program will include classical works by Brahms, Ralph Vaughan Williams, and Maurice Ravel, plus folk song arrangements by Aaron Copland, John Rutter, and Alice Parker.
Many pieces feature distinguished texts by poets such as Shakespeare, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Christina Rossetti, and A. E. Housman. A special section of the concert will be devoted to humorous songs about animals, including Eric Whitacre’s hilarious "Animal Crackers" with texts by Ogden Nash, and Rossini’s “Comic Duet for Two Cats.”
This is a concert suitable for all ages. Adults $10 - Students and Seniors $5. For more information contact Liz Frazer at 404- 875-3266 or visit www.justvoices.org.

Especially for youth ministers and leaders: The Regional Council of Churches is partnering with the Georgia Dept. of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities in SHARE HOPE. Suicide is a leading cause of death in young people. What is the role of the faith community in ministering to troubled young people? Share Hope is an interfaith social media contest to promote the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. Because we know that just pausing before acting often stops a suicide attempt, 988 is one important tool in fostering a healthy community. Have a look www.988ga.org/faith. This activity could be a great way to start off the school year with your creative youth group. And, your group could win a $250 Pizza Party--there will be ten winners.
