Our new digital organ - Rogers Imagine 239
Organ Update!
The new digital organ is being installed February 23rd week and will be dedicated at the March 15th service!
​
I am very excited to introduce this organ to the congregation for our Worship Services each Sunday. The organ is an important worship leader for Liturgy as well as the many beautiful hymns that we sing. The variety of sounds including actual German, French, and English Pipe Organ sounds are just a few samples to look forward to, and the wonderful plus is that we do not need to spend any money on tunings. It will be perfectly in tune which will complement our orchestra ensemble greatly. Thank you for your support!

OTHER MUSIC NOTES!
Many things are happening in March.
1. Weeks one and two I will be busy learning the registration techniques for our new Rodgers Digital Organ. The Daffer Organ Company continues to work, positioning the speakers and voicing the sounds for the sanctuary.
Thanks to the Organ Donors, Organ Committee (Paul K, Chairman), and the Reconstruction Committee who worked beautifully to remove the pipes, organ, and blower in the basement.
They prepared the space for the installation of the new organ. A very special thanks to the Board and Pastor Schreiber as they supported this project with meetings and also reaching out to the community (our Pastor must be recognized here!), asking for donations which we received in record time.
2. We will be Live Streaming Wednesday Evening Lenten Services with Pastor Schreiber through the lent season.
3. A Special Organ Donor Concert of Donor Music Selections, Live-streamed and featuring the sounds of the Rodgers Organ in our church (possible date: March 26th).
4. On Saturday March 28 from 2-3pm there will be an Easter Messiah Sing-Along. Scores will be available to use for anyone wanting to follow or sing-along.
The Messiah was originally premiered by George Frederick Handel (famous German composer) on April 13, 1742, in Dublin, Ireland. It is now one of the most frequently performed choral works in Western Music. The four-hour work is a Biblical account of the Birth, Death, Resurrection, and Return of Jesus Christ.
A cookie fellowship will follow for this casual and fun event. Invite a friend, bring your children, and come sing or listen!
5. Services for Maundy Thursday, April 2 (evening), Good Friday, April 3 (evening), and Easter Sunday, April 5 (9:30 AM) will be at the church! Come join us!
