At Easter, Ta’Nika and Aaron Cooker Sang for Zion

The Pandemic had closed the church. There would be no choir. There would be no celebratory singing of the congregation. We were all hunkered down in our homes. Deacon Norman talked to us via YouTube. Ta’Nika and Aaron performed Panis Angelicus as an Easter offering.

Ta’Nika Gibson and Aaron Cooper made the recording at her parents’ house in Gilbertsville.
