Railyard Park Waxahachie sponsored a special evening at its new venue, just south of the downtown area, in partnership with Waxahachie Bible Church (WBC) on Thursday evening, Dec. 17. It was a crisp and cool night, perfect for everyone to get into the Christmas holiday spirit.
Mayor David Hill opened the caroling concert with a welcoming prayer for the audience on hand. The Praise Team from WBC singers and musicians took over the evening from that point on.
The group entertained those in attendance by leading well-known Christmas carols and inviting them to join in the fun. Some crowd favorites included “O Holy Night,” “Away in A Manger,” “Joy to the World,” and “Silent Night.” The grand finale was led by Hispanic Pastor Manuel Martinez from WBC, whose music featured the Spanish/English version of “Feliz Navidad.”
