I want to thank all of the people of St. Michael & All Angels for your very warm welcome this past Sunday. It was a day infused with joy, gratitude and hope as we marked the beginning of our journey together as parish and rector.
This colorful Sunday of Pentecost is the final Sunday of our choir season. The St. Michael’s Singers and Choristers will join forces at the 9:00 am service with Keith Hampton’s True Light, loosely based on the traditional spiritual This little light of mine, as well as the classic anthem Draw us in the spirit’s tether at communion.
Mark your calendars for two special youth-group events in June! First, on Sunday, June 4, the St. Michael’s Youth Group will meet for an end-of-year party with our new rector Scott Painter. The time for this event is from 5:00 to 7:00 pm in the Parish Hall, and it will include dinner, games and prizes.
On Sunday, May 28, we celebrate the Feast of Pentecost. At St. Michael’s, that means that we gather in the Nave under beautiful, colorful hangings and descending doves. We listen to traditional Pentecost readings and dress in red, orange and yellow clothing.
Thursday is the Feast of the Ascension in the liturgical year. On this day the church remembers an important truth of our story: after death and after resurrection, life goes on–forever changed.
This coming Sunday after the Ascension, we have a grand Anglican choral anthem with organ based on an excerpt from the Song of Solomon by English composer Patrick Hadley (1899-1973), including the text “Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.”
Broadway Night is back! Tickets will be on sale this Sunday and next (May 21 and 28) after both the 9:00 and 11:00 am services. Support the St. Michael’s Music Program in their annual fundraiser AND be thoroughly entertained in the process! This year, the dates are coming right up: Friday and Saturday, June 2 and 3.
