Attendance at the Christmas concert was larger than usual. The concerts are free.
(Note: There will be no Christmas Concert attended by hundreds in 2020 at the Pasadena United Methodist Church, but here is what it looked like in 2016.)
On every third Saturday at 4 p.m. there is a free concert at the United Methodist Church on Colorado Blvd. in Pasadena. Cellists, pianists, singers, organists and, for the Christmas concert, bell ringers of all ages–all drawn from the congregation of this church.
This beautiful organ is at the center of church. This photo was taken in November.
The church building is quite beautiful and the organ magnificent. Unfortunately, I have not been able to capture the amazing stained glass windows, but , take it from me, they are gorgeous.
Pasadena was founded by a group of Methodist farmers from Indiana and their city plan called from a church at 1 mile intervals throughout the city so no one would have to walk more than a half-mile to church on Sunday.Before Ronald Reagan became President homelessness was not a major feature of America. As I was walking to the front of the building, I came across a homeless person nestled up against the church wall.
