Mary Kay's Cary Days
March 1, 2007
Dear friends,
It’s Wednesday afternoon and I have just come from enjoying
a delicious lunch of chili and cornbread prepared here at the Kirk
and offered after our lunchtime music and meditations called "Sounds
of the Spirit" for Lenten Wednesdays. A special thanks to the
K-group including Allison Connors, Ann Grundstrom, Annette Homiller,
Cindy Wagner, Jennifer Leonard, Julie Bell, Kathy Keller, Robin
Shannon, Vicki Bloch and Kathy Earley. They prepared and served
our lunch and will continue to do so for several more Lenten weeks.
Next week’s menu is Brunswick stew, biscuits and dessert. We
still could use another group of persons to do lunches on March
21 and April 4. Come and enjoy a reading from Psalms and music to
feed your soul!
This week during worship The "Psalm 150" Ensemble will
lead the musical selections at the 9:00 a.m. service. They invite
you to join in a sing-along beginning at 8:40 a.m. to learn and
enjoy some new contemporary songs. Members of this group include
Robert Babb, Janet Barclay, Peggy Booth, Shelly Bowser, Bill Boyle,
Ellen Boyle, Paul Hamilton, Phil Hamilton, Amy Huenemann, Ken Purchase
and David Wells. They are in need of a keyboardist comfortable with
contemporary style as well as additional instrumentalists. Please
contact Ken Purchase if you are interested. Ellen Boyle will be
singing “Would they love Him down in Shreveport?” at this
service also. It’s great to hear all styles of music here at
the Kirk!
During the 11:00 a.m. worship our children and youth handbell ensembles
will be playing. The Genesis ringers are offering a communion selection
entitled “Bread of the World in Mercy Broken,” while the
Coventry Ringers will accompany us in singing the opening hymn this
day. The Coventry “6” Ringers, an ensemble of the high
school ringers, will be playing “Tis The Gift to Be Simple”
as an offertory. Chancel Choir will be singing a medley of favorite
“cross” songs as we continue in the spirit of Lent.
Any singers interested in joining any of our choirs, please feel
free to speak to any ensemble member. Our rehearsals are open to
all!
Wishing you a wonderful week!
Peace,
Mary Kay
