During the summer months, the choir goes on hiatus and St. John’s becomes rather quiet. During the quiet time between now and September I would like to invite any and all who might care to participate to an informal weekly singing session (with our gathering time to be determined).
I would envision some exploration of less traveled portions of the hymnal with an eye toward broadening our hymn repertoire, some practice in Psalm chanting, and an introduction to the pleasure of being part of an ensemble. Science has shown that group singing is outstandingly good for your health, and by bringing your voices to Sunday mornings, you would be making an important contribution to the leadership and vitality of our weekly liturgy. Please consider joining me in keeping St John’s a singing church.
You can reach me at dnwitte@gmail. com or speak to me at church if you are interested or would like to discuss this opportunity further.
