March Music Ministry Notes
I was so very grateful for the Shining Star Award the congregation gave me in February. What a surprise! You are all unique treasures and I love creating a music ministry for you every week.
Open Mic Night is an annual tradition. This year it will be on Saturday night, March 26. It’s an opportunity for EVERYONE to perform in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. In the past we’ve had poetry readings, skits, vocal solos, Boomwhacker ensembles, dancing dogs, hose horn, and cross-dressing. I am always looking for more children and youth to perform, so invite your family members participate, or better yet, perform an act as a family! This event is a fun-draiser for the Music Committee, so please come out to support the event, even if just as an audience member.
And emma’s revolution will be here in concert in less than a month – on Saturday, April 2, 7:30pm. Bring the family for this event, too! Last year we brought my son Joey (at age 6) to hear their concert in Fullerton, and he LOVED it – and sat still for the whole thing. (Those who know Joey know what a major feat that is!) He also begged for a “Peace, Salaam, Shalom” t-shirt, which he proudly wears to school. Kids 12 and under are free! Check out their website at www.emmasrevolution.com to hear their music, see their videos, and read their newsletter. They sing out loudly for peace, justice, and equal rights. You’ll love them! Tickets will be available on the patio on Sundays starting March 13, but you can always purchase tickets online through BrownPaperTickets.
And Orange Coast Choir has been invited to sing in an Interfaith Choir Festival on Sunday, April 3 at 4pm at Good Shepherd Lutheran, 7082 Crescent Ave., Buena Park. We will be the only non-Christian church represented, and there will be choirs from AME, Lutheran, Presbyterian, and Episcopal church, plus a Swahili Choir from San Diego. Please come support the choir and enjoy a great variety of wonderful sacred music.
Musically Yours,
Beth Syverson, Director of Music Ministries
