This is a youth choir directed by Scott and Nicole Hughes and based out of Eastport United Methodist Church. Beginning in January, they rehearse each Sunday until June. This June they will perform at eight local churches and then go on the road to Durham, NC, and Myrtle Beach, SC.
Soul Searchers began performing musicals in 1972 under the direction of Bill Kerns. Made up of middle, high school and college age youth (including second generation singers), their musicals have included many styles — folk, country, patriotic, gospel, and contemporary. There has been considerable talent exhibited over the years, and productions have used lights, costumes, microphones, skits, choreography, soloists, puppets, sign language, ballet, instruments, and ribbon dancers. Support crew and chaperones help set up and break down concerts.
The 2009 musical is entitled "Yes, I Believe." A group of youth is struggling with problems stemming from September 11, 2001, as well as problems at school. Throughout the musical they learn to deal with these problems and realize that Jesus Christ is the answer.
We hope you will support this amazing group and plan to attend one of their performances.
