Speaker: Rev. Bridget McCann
Join us for a special service of light and music, highlighted by the Portland Interfaith Gospel Choir and incomparable LaRhonda Steele joined by our beloved Lauri Jones!
Over the years LaRhonda has enjoyed performing and recording with national, international and local artists such as Curtis Salgado, Taj Mahal, Norman Sylvester, Linda Hornbuckle, Janice Scroggins, Paul Delay, Obo Addy, Thara Memory, Ken DeRouchie, NW Women in Blues, Mark Bosnian and Linda Rossi/Out of the Blue w/Mark Steele and so many more.
Throughout the greater Pacific NW and beyond, vocalist and songwriter Lauri Jones has been stirring a deep spiritual knowing in her listeners for decades. On CD Baby: “…her voice is ‘rich and sensuous with amazing clarity and presence… it melts the heart.’” You’ll experience her authenticity and your own delight in equal measure as you enjoy this true artist expressing her gifts!
