Dear Friends,
Happy New Year!
So many of us have struggled through 2020 and are hoping for a better year ahead. Please know that I am with you in that hope and in praying for a peaceful and positive 2021.
Each year, HCC offers a Celebration of the Arts in Epiphany, which is the season after Christmas.
We often start our celebration with Jazz Sunday and this year is no exception! We are blessed to have our very own Willis Edmundson and his bandmates, Benjamin Young and Dabin Ryu, as guest musicians this Sunday morning. Please tune in to the Hingham Congregational Church YouTube channel at 10 a.m. to hear some great tunes and experience the ways that jazz can enhance our experience of the Divine and teach us how to listen to one another.
We will also be sharing communion on Sunday. Please gather your elements in advance so you can participate.
Sending Love and Peace to all,
Pete

Call for Winter Music Volunteers!
We are in need of volunteer musicians (especially strings, keyboard, melodic percussion, (non-singers, and non-wind players)). While much research is being done on the spread of aerosols in music ensembles, it is not complete, and we have no cure or vaccine for COVID-19. Our choirs will not gather in person until we are sure it is safe to do so. Senior choir will continue to gather on ZOOM, Now Thursdays 7:15 -8:45, where we will enjoy fellowship, sing-alongs, and create virtual choir anthems. Let me know if you want to join.
