"There are seven different musical groups from six different churches in Great Bend joining together for this afternoon of Christian music," Woodmansee said. The music program will include a vocal duet with piano and guitar from the First Presbyterian Church; "Joyful Praise Ringers," a bell choir from the Trinity Lutheran Church; a vocalist from Trinity United Methodist Church; a pianist from First Presbyterian; "Men of God," a Gospel quintet from the First Baptist Church; vocal solos by Glenna Gaunt from the Central Baptist Church; and an organ/piano duet from First United Methodist Church.

Donations will go to the Barton County Emergency Aid Council, with 10 percent to the Presbyterian Crisis Management program.

A reception will follow the concert. All in the community are invited.
