This Saturday is the 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Nice job last week! For the first time in quite a while, nearly all of our instrumentalists were able to be there. Several people commented that they were impressed with our music, including the visiting Sister who came to speak about her missionary work.

Thanks to everyone who was able to be at Mass last week -- there were a few minor issues, but Mass overall went well. Special thanks to those involved with 'America the Beautiful' for both our 'practice run' as a warm-up before Mass, as well as our postlude performance.

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!

This Saturday is the 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Last week, we had a nearly-perfect mass with strong guitar and percussion sections, one lead melodic instrument, and a fair number of singers (including a few new folks). Really nice job, all!

Thanks to all who were able to be at mass last week (welcome back, Mr. Jim!), and nice job on 'Weary Traveler'!

This week is the 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Jim (and possibly Karina) will be out this week. Because of this, Barry has made another minor revision to our program, replacing 'Where Charity and Love Prevail' with 'All That We Have'. The ladder is a fairly new song for us, having only done it a few times previously.

In addition, Ginny has suggested squeezing Killoren's 'We Are the People' somewhere into mass since we'll be celebrating our parish Birthday on Sunday. It might make a good prelude/practice song before mass if Father is willing. Barry is not familiar with this particular tune, though, so I'm not sure if we'll do it or not.
