New Choir Members

Tonight was a beautiful night for the small group of five of us to practice outside on the patio of St Clare parish hall around the round concrete pedestal patio table.

There was just us against a beautiful Franciscan like setting…and then we were joined by a couple of small birds who made their way closer and closer to us eventually making themselves comfortable in a small bush just a few feet away.

They joined us for a few hymns. It was so awesome I couldn’t help but smile as we were singing. They seemed to really like this song… here is a short recording;

Email received this morning:

“Good morning my Friends, just wanted to say thank you to the entire group for the fantastic singing last night. We could not have picked a better group for the first Confirmation class in St. Clare’s new church. You made it so special for our family having you behind us. Especially since Shaemus was one of the Confirmands. Once again, thank you Elijah Music MASTERS for your voices and musical talent.”

God Bless, Kelly & Jennifer Durkin

The story goes….in “regular” work if you do a good job…you get a vacation. In “Spiritual” works if you do a good job…you get more work! LOL.

It is such a great compliment to what you all do that we are approached to provide music for a variety of events.  Will you please scroll through the google calendar in the calendar tab to see the following items over the next several weeks;

  • Wednesday, April 12th – practice in lieu since it is Holy Thursday – Please advise if this works with your schedule, we can revisit.
  • Thursday, May 4th @ 6:30PM – Mass with the Archbishop (similar to the dedication mass there will be a few people from other choirs and we will do some of the same songs including the Sole Luna) – Please advise if you are available
  • Friday, May 19th @ 7:00PM – Mass with the Archbishop followed by concert in the church hall –  Just a reminder. Thank you for your participation
  • Sunday, May 7th – Saturday, May 13th – Patrick, Peggy & Rob away.  Just to be aware. Everyone else is here. 

Thank you for always keeping us posted in advance if you are going to be away, as this can sometimes affect music choices.
