UPCOMING MUSIC EVENTS
October is always a busy month for Lutheran musicians! Below are several activities coming up in preparation for Reformation Day.
The bell choir will meet for its first rehearsal of the fall on October 2 at 6:00 p.m. and continue meeting throughout the month to prepare for its appearance on Reformation Sunday. Whether you have played music before or always wanted to try it, this is the group for you!
The choir will begin looking at its Reformation Sunday music on October 9 at its usual time of 7:00 p.m. This year’s Reformation anthem will be an arrangement of “By Grace I’m Saved.”
A second Hymn Sing will be held on Thursday, October 30th at 7:00 p.m. Wedged between Reformation Sunday and Reformation Day, the topic can be none other than “Hymns of the Reformation”! We will examine the texts and tunes of several of Martin Luther’s most famous hymns before singing them to a collection of special arrangements, with a sprinkling of Scripture readings and prayers in between. Dear Christians, one and all, rejoice!
For the glory of God,
Timothy Schmidt, organist and choir director
