Tuesday February 28: The Journey Begins with Michael McCarthy
As we begin our journey of Lent we travel with a song on our hearts and lips. This evening’s program explores the Lenten journey across the centuries from that very first Holy Week to today. A musical tapestry of extraordinary breadth and depth that takes us to the foot of the cross and beyond.
Tuesday March 7: "He Who Sings Prays Twice" with Julie DeBoer
St Augustine said, “he who sings prays twice.” This evening Julie DeBoer will provide opportunity for you to learn better how to pray twice. As a distinguished singer and educator, Julie will prepare you vocally for our journey to Jerusalem.
Tuesday March 14: A Song of Love Unknown with Tom Sheehan
The Episcopal Church relies on two primary resources for congregational worship, the 1982 Hymnal and LEVAS II (Lift Every Voice and Sing). This evening Tom Sheehan will talk about the riches of the 1982 hymnal, its deeply traditional roots and evolution which inspires new tunes and new texts for worship in the modern day.
Tuesday, March 21: Laetare Tuesday with Michele Fowlin
The fourth Sunday in Lent is known as Laetare Sunday, a brief pause in the Lenten journey intended as a day of rejoicing, a small oasis in the vast desert. This evening Michele Fowlin will further our exploration of hymnody from the perspective of the African American tradition and how it is inspiring and shaping the worship of the church.
Tuesday, March 28: Jerusalem in Sight with Michael McCarthy
At journey’s end we find ourselves on the outskirts of Jerusalem. The followers of Jesus, their messiah, are excited to spread the good news of salvation only to find hope tortured and love nailed to a cross. This evening we will take our final steps of Lent and prepare the Holy Week sojourn. We will examine the music that will adorn our Holy Week liturgies and illumine the path to resurrection life.
