St. John’s Episcopal-Lutheran Church invites every one of all ages in the Williams community, surrounding communities, along with visitors to Northern Arizona, to enjoy the first, free public concert of the 2018 Advent season on November 25th at 5 pm in the church sanctuary. Mr. Larry Dean Hannah will begin this year’s concert series. This is the 9th year that St. John’s has hosted the four-week advent concert series for Williams.
Mr. Hannah has been a performing artist of acoustic and electric guitar and vocals for over fifty years. He started playing acoustic guitar and singing folk songs in the 1960s. He went from folk to rock and traveled all over the U.S. and Canada, playing in rock and country bands at all kinds of venues.
He then settled down in Yuma, Arizona in 2000 and performed throughout the Southwest at fairs, festivals, and house concerts. Beginning in 2004, Mr. Hannah began singing on the Grand Canyon Railway, and has continued to enjoy performing for those traveling to the national park via train for nearly 15 years. During the winter months, Mr. Hannah performs at local events, clubs and RV parks in Yuma.
Come and enjoy a concert program filled with not only Christmas songs, but also some of your favorite melodies. St. John’s is located at 202 W. Grant Ave. in Williams (at the corner of Second and Grant). There is plenty of street parking along Grant. After the concert, there will be homemade refreshments and a time to meet and speak to Mr. Hannah in the church’s Walker Hall. There is a free-will offering in place of any set fee for attending this concert.
This is a family-friendly event, so please bring your children, too, to enjoy this fun, social evening of music and entertainment.
