LISBON — St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church on the hill off Route 196 will offer a free “Christmas and Praise” concert featuring Manifest at 7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 11, as its eighth annual gift to the community.

“Christmas brings a joy and energy into our lives. This year St. Matthew’s helps the musical group Manifest share some of that joy and energy with our neighbors as we celebrate the joy that is the birth of Jesus, the Christ,” said the Rev. Beau Wagner, rector of St. Matthew’s Church.

St. Matthew’s parishioners will provide free desserts. 

Manifest features Kelly Bisson, 25, of Sabattus, Nate Holcombe, 26, of Portland, Lee Fellman, 23, of Readfield, and Tim Sturtevant, 21, of Fayette.
