A huge thanks to Victoria for playing last week! There were a few small things here and there, but the program came together very well. The harmonies on the Mass Parts are also really starting to take shape. Our visiting priest, Fr. Joshi, and a number of others shared how much they enjoyed the music. Check out the audio here.
Our September music & cantor schedule is ready to go! A few quick notes:
- We'll be celebrating the Season of Creation all month with the theme "To Hope and Act with Creation". Like last year, the Parish's Laudato Si Ministry has asked that we include creation-themed music, so I've selected at least one piece per Mass.
- We'll celebrate a double-Baptism on Sept. 7th (rescheduled from Aug. 17th); A Baptism Response & Sprinkling Rite has been added to the program. Please try to be there if possible!
- Bev is out on Sept. 21st; we're working on coverage for that night (likely Virginia or Victoria).
As for Storrington Mass, let's plan to meet at 3:30 on Sept. 7th & 14th. Everything seems to be coming together nicely, but that'll give us some time to clean up the parts. Thanks again for look at these!
Please welcome Barry R. to the group! As mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Barry is a long-time Saturday Mass attendee and recently expressed interest in getting involved with the Ministry. It's great to have another singer onboard!
Looking ahead, the Advent/Christmas season is only three (!) months away! It's still early, but I'd like to get a sense of where we stand. Please let me know if you're unable to sing/play for Christmas Eve. We'll need to start looking at music in the next month or two, so that will really help with planning.
I think that's it! Have a great week, and if I don't see you, a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
