Quincy Symphony Orchestra: Suites & Serenades

The Quincy Symphony Orchestra presents “Suites & Serenades” conducted by Dr. Bruce Briney. Our joyful program includes Mozart’s cascading Wind Serenade in E-flat, Holst’s lively St. Paul’s Suite and Ewald’s bold Brass Quintet No. 1. Filmed live by WGEM-TV, this high-quality digital production transports you to the concert hall for a spectacular performance! This opportunity for our viewing was made possible by friends of Good Samaritan Home.

Weekly Inspiration

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.” -Melody Beattie

Scripture & Prayer Request

Isaiah 30:15
