Classical Concert at Chapel

We are so excited to have the School of Mahanaim coming this Friday, February 22nd to do a classical concert for our Chapel Service. The School of Mahanaim is a Music, Theology and ESL College located in Huntington and founded on Christian principals.

Mahanaim is first mentioned by the Bible as the place where Jacob, returning from Padan-aram to southern Canaan, had a vision of angels (Genesis 32:2). Jacob's realization that the place was "God's camp", led him to name the place Mahanaim - Two Camps, or Two Companies, to memorialize the occasion of his own company sharing the place with God's. The word is also used in the Song of Solomon in reference to a dance. Song of Solomon 6:13.

We are so pleased to have these students, most originally from Asia, come to our school and share their testimonies as well as their music. The School of Mahanaim has connections with some of Asia's premier classical musicians, composers and conductors. Our Asian students will especially like seeing older students from Asia studying and performing here in the United States just like they are.

Blessings,
Ed
