This Saturday is the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Thanks to everyone who was able to help out with both All Saints and regular Saturday Mass last week! We had small groups for both liturgies, but everything turned out pretty well.

Covering All Saints was a nice change in pace, and we (SCCS) also had a successful and well-received choir concert Saturday evening. I really appreciate everyone's willingness to step up and fill in/cover where needed. Things should be back to normal this week.

This Saturday is the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time.

It was great to be nearly at full strength last week! We had a few slightly-iffy intros and two Baptisms, but everything overall went pretty well. Jim, Jonathan and Maggie also did a lovely rendition of 'Grace Revealed' as a prelude. There was a technical issue with my audio recorder, though, and nothing was captured (grrr....).

I missed mentioning this in my last post, but please welcome Jeff to the group! Ginny recruited him to join us last week.

This Saturday is the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time.

We where nearly at full staff last Saturday and Mass went very smoothly. Thanks to everyone who was able to be there!

Tom and I met at 4 PM to review Mass Parts and the music for the liturgy, something we may end up doing somewhat regularly for a while. Feel free to come early and join us if there's something specific you'd like to look at before rehearsal.

On Sunday, Jonathan and I, as well as folks from the 11 AM choir and religious education classes, performed in what turned out to be a pretty successful talent show as part of Father's Stewardship Kickoff event. It was also hinted at that the talent show may become an annual event, so just something to keep an eye out for if you're interested in performing.

This Saturday is the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Last week, we practiced after mass to review the music for November. We also crashed through Mass of Joy & Peace to re-familiarize ourselves, since we'll be using that setting throughout Advent and Christmas.

Starting this week, we're back to having regular, weekly practices, although the dinner situation is still up-in-the-air (Jim has it covered this week, though). Please stick around if you can (we've been averaging an 8:30 finish time). We'll focus on our Advent/Christmas music and Mass of Joy & Peace for the remainder of this year, before resuming several uncompleted projects in January.
