Everyone is welcome once again for a night of magical Christmas songs at Hear the Music Night.
The worship concert series includes a very special annual Christmas concert, and this year you can attend in either 琉璃神社 or Vernon. JUNO Award nominee and Christian recording artist Jon Buller and his talented band will lead a night of favourite holiday carols and worship songs.
These concerts will feature local harpist Aaron Ord, and a children鈥檚 choir in partnership with Vernon Christian School.
鈥淲e wanted to include kids from the community because the holidays are a time when we are called to hope. It鈥檚 the joy on the faces of the young ones, and their sense of anticipation that we need to rub off on us - and it does. We can all use some of that child-like faith,鈥 said Buller

鈥淚t鈥檚 a pretty special line-up this year, with some of my favourite musicians from the community joining us. I鈥檓 loving creating the set-list too. We鈥檝e chosen some beautiful songs to feature, but I think my favourite thing is making sure there are plenty of classic carols for people to sing along to,鈥 said Buller
With a history in Vernon going back 12 years, Hear the Music Night is known for being a place where people can engage in a community of faith that may have many differences, but are united by their desire to lift up the name of Jesus.
