EVMCO Christmas Concert - Heavenly Peace

East Valley Millennial Choirs and Orchestra (EVMCO) has been an amazing experience for our teens. I would have all my kids in the choirs if it wasn't so far away, it's in Gilbert, and didn't start so early in the afternoon.  There is just no way we can get out there fast enough after school.  We leave the house at 3:45 pm every Thursday for rehearsals and don't get home until just before 9:00 pm.

"MCO was founded in 2007 for the purpose of teaching and encouraging excellence in quality sacred and classical music. Its primary purpose is to fulfill the need for more refined music education in our communities, with a focus on God and country. Similar to the music of the masters – Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms – we are bringing God back into the concert hall with the sacred/classical music that is such a rich part of the history of Christianity. We feel this is vital in today’s society, particularly for the youth of America.
MCO provides an invaluable learning environment whereby children, youth, and adults may associate and develop talents with those who maintain upstanding Christian values, while instilling in its participants a deep love for sacred and classical music." from the Millennial Choir website.

Their performances are unlike anything you have ever heard or seen.  The masses of children and adults singing together, surrounding the audience at times, it is amazing!

Richard and I both helped back stage this time.  He loved it as much as I do.  The youth we work with are a great group of kids. We have a lot of fun and get to listen to great music.

My parents came to the Friday night concert. We were excited to share all kids' hard work with them.
