Thanks to all who were able to be there last Saturday, especially Bev & Maggie for taking point! After this week, we should mostly be out of the woods on Summer coverage. Looking forward to having everyone back as we approach Fall!

Father Charlie isn't feeling well, so Father Gardner will be celebrating the weekend Masses. Please keep Father Charlie in prayer. We may need to tweak a few things such as Mass Part intros, etc..

A reminder that Joanne is filling in for Bev on piano this week. She's planning to be there around 4:30; we'll still meet at 4 PM as usual.

Father's Gathering song, Where Your Treasure Is, is new. This has been done the past few Sundays, but we haven't sung it yet. Please make sure you're familiar with at least melody (especially vs 4). I'd love to work on parts, etc., but we probably won't have time. We may not do all the verses either.

For the Psalm, Here I Am, let's try to keep this fairly upbeat. It has a tendency to drag if taken too slowly. Harmony would be great if anyone's able.

Finally, you may already be aware, but Frances left the area in mid-July. She originally joined us in 2016. At the time, Masses were being celebrated in the Hall because of a roof leak (fun times :-). More recently, Frances has been singing on Sundays. I just wanted to say a huge thank you! It's been fun!

UPDATE: 07/11: With Father Charlie out, we'll need to lead the singing of "If you believe and I believe..." after the Intercessions.

That's all for now. See you Saturday!

(All Mass Parts are from Mass of Creation, including Gospel Acclamation, Holy, Eucharistic Acclamation 'A', Doxology & Lamb of God)
