Coolidge Baptist presents patriotic musical

At 11 a.m., Sunday, Sept. 10, the Coolidge Baptist Church choir will present the patriotic musical, “In God We Trust.”

“This musical was written to celebrate our country’s heritage and freedom and to honor our local law enforcement, fire fighters, emergency rescue personnel, both current and past, as well as our military personnel and veterans,” Coolidge Baptist Minister of Music William Majors said. “We are inviting anyone, everyone, working with law enforcement or emergency services, and anyone in military service to join us Sunday morning. Through our music we want to recognize these folks and their sacrifices.”

Coolidge Baptist has a new pastor, the Rev. Adam Gilligan. Gilligan took over the pastorate of Coolidge Baptist in April of this year. He explained that the church is sharing the patriotic musical this Sunday, Sept. 10, in honor and remembrance of Sept. 11, 2001. “We want to bring our community together as we remember the events surrounding 9/11,” Gilligan said.
