SYCAMORE – Sycamore United Methodist Church Music Ministries will present its annual Lenten cantata, titled “Come Touch the Robe,” at 5 p.m. April 9, and at 8:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. April 10.

The storyline of “Come Touch the Robe,” narrated by Pepper Choplin, focuses on a robe worn by Jesus Christ as a thematic device to recount the interactions of those who were with him during his last days on Earth. The robe will help display Jesus’s healing, glory, authority, humility and victory during his final days, according to a news release.

The 40+ combined choir and full chamber orchestra will be under the direction of Pete Hansen, SUMC director of music.

The church is located at 160 Johnson Ave. in Sycamore.
