Annual "Will Sing for Food" Concerts Scheduled for January

It's the busy Christmas season, but there is a big event in January to mark on your calendar. Thirty musicians are rehearsing for their yearly concert, "Will Sing for Food." The fun-filled night will be filled with a variety of songs from different genres from pop to rock, folk to Broadway. All donations will help fund the Long Island Council of Churches' food pantries. Suggested donations are $20 each. Come to enjoy the music and help support those in need.

Two churches are sponsoring the concert this year. The first night, Friday, January 3rd, the Worship, Arts and Music committee, in combination with the Board of Session at the First Presbyterian Church of Freeport will host the concert.
