Eleven churches took part in the Interfaith Council Music Festival March 30 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on Bainbridge Island. Representatives danced, played bells and sang. Everyone circled the room, holding hands, and sang and moved to ‘Green Grows the Tree of Unity, Alleluia.’ At the end of the event, about 100 members of all the choirs went onstage to sing, ‘May the Road Rise to Meet You.’
