Matthew Harrison, Music Minister

The First Baptist Church Choir, assisted by a guest soprano from
The New England Conservatory

Worship is a dynamic experience at First Baptist, blending a
beautiful, historical sanctuary with LCD projections which create
an inviting environment for all ages.

Matthew Harrison selected a large-scale choral work, Colors of
Lent, by Joseph Martin, to augment the worship service on April
21st. Harrison, a graduate student at NEC, is an active member of
Boston’s music community.

From Thursday evening’s Passover meal through Friday’s dark
hours on the cross, the light of Christ continued to illuminate the
Truth. The Teacher was showing us by example the greatest
lessons of his ministry which are service, obedience, humility,
and forgiveness. All are beautifully reflected in Joseph Martin’s
composition Colors of Grace.
