Moville Gospel Choir to play Concert in Methodist Church, Carlisle Road on Easter Tuesday

Packed Attendances

The choir (led by musical directors Deborah Kelly and Frank Fiorentini) has been performing regularly at Mass to packed attendances in St Pius X Church in Moville since January 2009.

Said Moville Parish Priest Fr Pat O Hagan “I am delighted that the choir has kindly agreed to perform at this concert.

"This is an acknowledgement to the Methodist Church for their unprecedented kindness to the Moville Parish in allowing their Hall to be used for weekday Masses when we were refurbishing St Pius X last year”.

50 Members

Choir Leader Deborah Kelly said “myself and Frank were asked by Fr Paddy O Kane to put together a Gospel Choir but little did we know how successful it would be. It has involved a lot of hard work and dedication as we have up to 50 members including singers and band members.

"Feedback from Mass attendances and concert goers has been very encouraging.

"We are looking forward to bringing our show to the people of my own native Derry and I hope the can come out to see us in this beautiful venue”.

A Storm

Moville Methodist Minister Rev Eric Lawson added “The Gospel Choir has created quite a storm in the area since they have started to perform.

Not only do they sing at Mass but have also done concerts, wedding and funerals. I had the pleasure of attending their concert in Caisel Mara, Moville last year and I know that their uplifting brand of music will go down well in Derry.”

The concert will involve a mix of traditional Gospel & Modern favourites as well as performances by individual choir members.
