NOTICES

 

           

 

            Starting on June 1, Saint Luke’s will change to its summer schedule, with a single combined Eucharist at 9:00 AM.  This will help us avoid the accumulation of heat that builds up in the Church during the summer months.

            We have come to the end of another choir season, the fourth in my tenure at St. Luke's.  I am very happy with the choir's many accomplishments this year.  Our repertory and our musicianship continue to increase.  In addition to the Sunday morning services, we have sung the expanded Christmas Eve service -- with a particularly gratifying turnout -- and seen increased participation by the choir and congregation in Lent and Holy Week.  This season, our schedule of four Evensongs included the Men's Evensong in October -- in which more and more singers from Southern California want to participate -- and the first-ever Women's Evensong in Lent, which was very well received.  The St. Luke's Choir sang in January and May, and this most recent service, despite the heat, had an extraordinary choir and a very enthusiastic congregation.

            In December, we also hosted the Pasadena Boys Choir, in a sold-out performance.  They are looking forward to doing it again this year.

            During the summer, I will have two vacation Sundays, during which Pat Kelly will be filling in.  The choir is off until September, but you will be seeing many of them on Sunday mornings when they are volunteering to lead the services with solos and small groups.

            As always, we thank the rector and the congregation for their continued support.

            The printer who supplied the green blanks for the printed Mustard Seed is no longer in business, and the big printers consider St Luke’s too small a client to service, except at an exorbitant cost.  Consequently, those who receive the Mustard Seed by mail will find that it is no longer in color.  This is to save costs; but should  anyone know of a printer who will produce our colored blanks at a reduced price—or better yet, as a contribution—please let us know so we can go green again.
