Sing For Joy celebrates 50 years with Hymn Fest

By Le Ann Finger '85
February 18, 2005

St. Olaf has retained production of Sing For Joy-- the weekly sacred music program heard previously on WCAL and hosted by St. Olaf Pastor Bruce Benson. Broadcast in 200 markets nationwide, Sing For Joy has a simple mission: to provide music and commentary that will support the church in evangelism and worship.

Pastor Bruce Benson hosted Sing For Joy this February as it celebrated 50 years of broadcasting with a Hymn Festival at Central Lutheran Church in Minneapolis. The St. Olaf Cantorei also performed a newly commissioned work by composer Libby Larsen.
