Surround yourself with the sounds of the holiday season at a fantastic family concert Tuesday, Dec. 18, at the Orpheum Theater.

National recording artist Jill Miller will present Rejoice! at 7 p.m., featuring holiday music for all ages.

Miller, who describes herself as a “contemporary Christian artist more toward the pop side but with a little country to my voice” has been compared to Amy Grant, Shania Twain and Francesca Battistelli.

She has released six CDs and left her job 13 years ago for a full-time music career.

The Sioux Falls audience “will hear some originals and classics they know and love,” she said. “I have a six-piece band accompanying me, and they’re amazing. It’s been compared to a Branson, Mo., show. We bring in awesome stage props. We do a bluegrass set, I play ukulele on a song, so it’s a fun variety.”

The Sioux Falls Christian School hand bell choir will accompany the concert.

The concert also supports an important effort – Hope Haven International’s mission to distribute wheelchairs worldwide.

“I went with them to Vietnam, and it was absolutely life-changing to see how these wheelchairs give people mobility they never had,” Miller said. “It’s a great way to support a great cause.”

GreatLIFE agreed. It’s offering $5 tickets to members along with giveaways up to the concert.

Wheelchairs funded with the concert’s proceeds will be distributed in Vietnam as well as through the Los Cabos Children’s Foundation, founded by GreatLIFE’s CEO, which will give them to the nonprofit Mobilize Mankind for distribution in Los Cabos, Mexico.

Tickets for non-GreatLIFE members are $15. To reserve yours, click here.
