The Odujinrin family "Family Perspective on a Cross-Denominational Christian Gathering: Reflections from Spring Harvest" Spring Harvest is a unique annual event that brings together Christians from a wide range of denominations for worship, teaching, and fellowship. In this talk, the Odujinrins will share their experiences attending recent Spring Harvest gatherings, offering insights into what it's like to engage with such a diverse faith community from a family perspective. They will reflect on the richness of worship styles, the opportunities for spiritual growth, and the practical aspects of attending as a family—including how the event has enriched their faith and deepened their awareness of the unity that exists across different Christian traditions. About the Speakers: The Odujinrin family are longstanding members of St Martin's of Tours Church, Epsom. Dad has been involved in children's work and, together with their children (aged 15 and 12), sings in the choir and contributes to leading worship through music. Mum adds her own distinctive contribution through bell ringing. Deeply engaged in the life of the church, the family loves sharing their experiences of faith in action. Their reflections promise to offer encouragement and practical insights for families considering attending similar events that celebrate the beauty of worshipping together across denominations.

Ashtead Choral Society - Handel's Theodora

Handel - Theodora Step into the world of ancient Rome, where faith is forbidden and love defies empire. Set in Roman-occupied Antioch, Theodora tells the tale of a noble Christian woman who refuses to renounce her faith. Condemned to a brothel by the Roman governor Valens, Didymus, a Roman soldier secretly converted to Christianity, risks everything to save her. Composed in 1750, Theodora features some of Handel's most exquisite writing. The arias are tender and introspective, the choruses rich with solemn beauty. Handel himself considered it superior to Messiah, especially the chorus "He saw the lovely youth," which he ranked above the famous "Hallelujah" chorus. Though it was underappreciated in its time, Theodora is now hailed as a masterpiece of Baroque drama and musical expression. This is not just a concert — it's a journey into the soul of Handel's artistry. With its themes of courage, sacrifice, and spiritual transcendence, Theodora resonates deeply in today's world.
