Bethel Grad­u­ates and Stu­dents form Acapella Group, Lu­mi­nos

 MISHAWAKA, IND.—On Oc­to­ber 10, 2018 the Bethel Col­lege Con­cert Choir and Voices of Tri­umph an­nounced they would be in­clud­ing a spe­cial guest in their Fall Con­cert Pro­gram, Lu­mi­nos, a four-per­son acapella group. Their mem­bers in­clude, Joshua Mau­rer, a 2018 Bethel grad­u­ate, Wes­ley Lantz, a 2018 Bethel grad­u­ate, along with Michaela Love and Bethany Mul­let, who are both ju­niors.  

The Bea­con reached out to Lu­mi­nos to com­ment on the part­ner­ship, and re­ceived a re­ply from Joshua Mau­rer, who is not only a mem­ber of the group, but also the man­ager of Lu­mi­nos. Mau­rer replied, “We are re­ally hon­ored to be join­ing the Bethel Con­cert Choir and Voices of Tri­umph as guests on their Fall Con­cert Pro­gram.” 

Luminos was formed by chance in February of 2018 by Maurer, Lantz, Love, and Mullet. They started off singing Valentines songs in a group around Indiana as part of Bethel College’s Voices of Triumph. They quickly realized they loved how they sounded together. They started singing together and planning times to perform.   They based the name Luminos on the Latin word for “illuminate”, lumino. After creating the name, they started performing around the area.   They are currently rehearsing for their Christmas programs, starting November 18. They will be traveling all over the country and performing. Some of the states included in their tour are Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, and Texas. They are all very excited for this tour and the opportunity to perform.
