As one of our last acts before dissolving ourselves as a 501c3 we were thrilled to be able to present Matthew Holt, Executive Director of Renaissance at Bethel University, with a check for $1,500.00 to be used in their mission to enrich the lives of young people through the performing arts.

OUR FINAL CONCERT is one we'll always remember. Not only did we have one of our largest crowds in our 23-year history (250) at First Baptist Dresden, but we also had in the audience some of those who have been our most dedicated supporters and sponsors. We also had dear friends, family and several former DJC members. We can't thank you enough for being there for us, especially during a busy holiday weekend. One of our most cherished "non-singers" in the chorus family, Didi Johnson, took these concert photos. They capture this very special evening well. Thanks for the memories, and God bless you all.

TONIGHT IS IT – After 23 years and about 200 performances, DJC will present its final concert tonight at 7:00 at Dresden First Baptist Church. We hope you will join us for a very special evening together as we sing for you and share the many emotions that come with saying a final concert farewell to you, to DJC and to one another. We can't thank you enough for your support and encouragement through these many years.

WE HAD SUCH a great time singing at Dyer CP Church on Friday, May 21. We've sung for these wonderful folks many times during our 23-year history, and we will miss them. We appreciate them for feeding us once again before the concert. We appreciate our own Didi Johnson for taking these photos.
