On this occasion was presented the cantata “His Love . . . Reaching – A Celebration of God’s Gift” by Ron Huff and Bill and Gloria Gaither. At this Christmas service, in addition to the cantata, piano and organ duets were performed, with pianist and conductor Felix Downs and organist Handel Cecilio. This was a very fulfilling time for Handel Cecilio as a liturgical organist, and working under the direction of the brilliant and highly skilled musician, Minister of Music Felix Downs, a great personal friend to this day.
