OUR PERFORMANCESIn our first year, the ACC performed with A-PEAL Handbell Chorus from Glenmore Christian Academy for our 1st annual Christmas concert. We also sang throughout the community. We performed for the volunteers of Operation Christmas Child and made appearances at the World Day of Prayer and for worship at Knox Presbyterian Church and First Lutheran Church. A highlight of the year was an African Drumming workshop with specialist Glenda Macleod.
During the 2005-06 season we celebrated the music of the fabulous musical "Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat". The choir performed for their families, as well as, the children of Richmond Hill Baptist Church & Westside Kings Church.
The 2006-07 season was the most exciting yet as the ACC presented two musicals. Our Christmas show "Super Gift from Heaven" was presented with First Lutheran Church. We went on tour with our Spring musical "Esther-Ordinary Faith".
In the 2007-08 season, the ACC prepared two musicals, one at Christmas ("Miraculous Christmas Wish Radio Show") and one in the Spring. In April, we were joined by the junior handbell ringers of Calgary Christian School as we presented the cantata "Elijah" for the people of Emmanuel Christian Reformed Church. The singers also enjoyed serving others. We made 150 sandwiches for the Mustard Seed Ministry. We also performed for the people of Glamorgan Care Centre and Wentworth Manor.
In the 2008-09 we mounted the ambitious "Miracle on Bethleham Street" with lots of great characters and speaking roles. In the Spring we presented "A Technicolor Promise - The Story of Joseph."
We branched out with community performances in our 2009-10 season. The congregations of Scarboro United and Northmount Baptist Church loved our performance of "Light of the World." In the Spring we performed "Jonah" to the delight of the guests of the Mustard Seed and residents of Sarcee West Care Centre. We also joined the worship service of Highwood Lutheran Church. It has been such a blessing to collaborate with other communities.
A highlight of 2009-10 was our day of community service. In April we collected 300 juice boxes to be used to make lunches for Calgary's needy children.
In the 2010-11 season the choir enjoyed performing for family and community. In December, we joined the high school choir of Calgary Christian School for a moving performance of "Hope for Resolution". The children also enjoyed their roles in "Radio J-O-Y". In the Spring, the choir presented "Elijah" to the delight of the seniors at Valley Ridge residence.
