MUSIC THIS WEEK
Seated at our three manual Rodgers organ this week will be Mrs. Selma Verse, an experienced church organist who will bring back to our service the voices of our instrument, too long silent! The anthem will be one of the songs from Five Mystical Songs by Vaughn Williams. Lynne Spotts will perform this piece of music with poetry by Herbert and Anne at the piano will be showing her keyboard facility with octaves and unique position changes. So this week, after all the pleasant diversion style music, we return momentarily to the classics and their special beauty. Worship with us this week and offer thanksgiving for all of our music and musicians.
