Laudamus
Tuesday, March 17, 2026 at 7:00PM at Bethany Lutheran, Long Beach Campus
Laudamus, the premier choir of seminarians from Concordia Seminary, St.Louis, will perform at several locations throughout Southern California during its 2026 tour scheduled for March 14–19. The tour theme, “Lamb of God, Who Takes Away the Sin of the World,” is drawn from the Gospel of John and reflects the Lenten season.
Each performance will include a variety of musical selections centered on Christ’s sacrificial love and the promise of salvation. “Our program this year focuses on Christ as the Lamb of God. God the Father sent His Son, Jesus, to be the perfect sacrifice in our place,” said Dr. Samuel Eatherton, assistant professor of Practical Theology, kantor, the Kreft Professor for Music Arts and director of Laudamus. “John the Baptist saw Jesus one day and exclaimed to those around him, ‘Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world!’ We pray God will help us reflect that same enthusiasm as we sing of all that Christ has done in winning salvation for us, so that we might live as His children.
