Songs & Updates for Saturday, July 23, 2016

This Saturday is the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time.
Huge thanks to everyone who was able to be at Mass last week! We were a bit light on singers, but for the first time in weeks, had a full compliment of instrumentalists, including two guitars, violin, piano and percussion. It was a pleasant surprise to have both Jonathan and Joe (percussion) with us! It wasn't a perfect Mass, but it was definitely one of our strongest in a while. Like others have mentioned, if we had this kind of manpower on a regular basis, we could really do some cool stuff :-)

If anyone would be interested in cantoring the Psalm, let me know. Otherwise, it's probably about my turn.

As far as I know, we haven't done 'Standin' in the Need of Prayer' at a regular Mass before. As some of your may recall, we used a special arrangement of this (here) for a CD we cut back in 2010. We can definitely have some fun with this tune and use the written cantor/response parts, but I'd like to stick with the original lyrics to be safe.

I'll be picking the music for August over the next week or so. If you have any song suggestions (especially for Communion), please feel free to shoot me an email. For reference, the Readings and suggested songs for August can be found here.

Lisa is (tentatively) out this week.

Tom is out through the end of this month.
