Songs & Updates for Saturday, August 1, 2015

This Saturday is the 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Despite being down a few people, mass went pretty smoothly last week. Thanks as always to everyone who was able to be there!

The only noteworthy issue we ran into was feedback over the sound system, which has been a reoccurring problem for the past month or more. In the end, we ran without microphones to avoid any problems during the liturgy. If anyone has any thoughts or ideas on how we can 'fix' this, I'm open to suggestions.

This Saturday is the 17th Sunday of Ordinary Time.

Karina and I where both tied up with other commitments last Saturday, so I don't have too many updates.

There were some issues with the Gathering song I had selected, 'Gather Your People'. My understanding was you guys where able to nail down the refrain, but not the verses, so there was a last-minute switch to 'Gather Us In' instead. My apologies for the bad pick -- if we do this song again, I'll make sure we have a chance to work on it first.

Mass went well last Saturday. We where almost at full staff and had a number of pretty strong pieces. Thanks as always to everyone who was able to be there!

Mass went fairly well last weekend. Jim was back, and I bounced between singing, playing and directing as needed. Karina also joined us to help cover some of the instrumental parts.

We did run into some feedback issues with the sound system once again, but Chip made an adjustment behind the board that seemed to fix this.

Father also commented on how good the harmony sounded on both the Psalm and Offertory songs, so nice job all!
