Willbridge Benefit Concert 2006

Last night, I was introduced to two wonderful organizations. One I knew about but hadn't seen perform, the Inner Light Community Gospel Choir. The other, Willbridge, I wasn't familiar with until last night. What an amazing collaboration of two groups giving so much to the community! The turnout was terrific, the speaking program thoughtful, the slide show of the work done by Willbridge so very touching, and the music moving to say the least! No one could sit still, at least until the last piece, a medley of "Silent Night" and "Until We Meet Again". A perfect ending to a warm, sparkling evening attended by so many who care about our homeless and now know they really can do something to help, the medley "Silent Night" and "Until We Meet Again" was a beautiful, comforting departure from the program. I left with the reaffirmation that, in this crazy world, right here in our town, there are so many good, giving people, great hope, inspiring music and that the magic of the three together can do wonders. Thank you!
