Bluffton University

Opening chords of Handel's Messiah

Practice for Bluffton University's 114th performance of Handel's Messiah will begin at 7 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 13, in the Gilliom Room of Mosiman Hall. Anyone from high school students to adults who has an interest in singing is welcome to attend. This year's performance will occur on Sunday, Dec. 6.

Performing the Messiah has been a long-standing Bluffton tradition, almost reaching back to the founding of the university. Although for a few years it was performed at both Easter and Christmas, Messiah is now solely an Advent/Christmas tradition for Bluffton.

Youth minister, John Collart will present "Building Community, Serving Communities," at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 24, in Founders Hall, as a part of Bluffton University's weekly Forum series. The event is free and open to the public.
