Special Music
Installation of Rev. Anthony J. Mondaine Sr.
The installation service featured special music including a variety of styles and musicians.
We experience audio difficulty so the selection How Great Thou Art is a partial recording and we are unable to share the performance by Laura Noble, who performed Goodness of God.
The musicians included Zenobia Smith, Anna O’Renick and Joseph Allred (duet), Susan Lundquist and Alexander Alejandre.
