Pianist Jo Ellen Winslow from Van Buren will present an hour concert of sacred, gospel, classical and folk music. Winslow started playing the piano in church when she was 11 years old and, over the years, she has played for many denominations and feels this is her calling in doing the Lord’s work.

This past spring, Winslow presented a concert at Trinity in Stockholm for The Lords’ Pantry, the food pantry of the Swedish Colony. She also presented a similar concert for the 125th anniversary of New Sweden Covenant Church.

Following the concert, a community reception will be held in the fellowship room.
