Sunday Bulletin for November 20

This Sunday we will be having Morning Prayer at Trinity instead of our customary Holy Eucharist  at both the 8 AM and 10:30 AM services as Pastor Heidi (and many parishioners) will be attending the Diocesan Eucharist with the Presiding Bishop in Hartford.

Since Morning Prayer is not a frequent liturgy at Trinity in recent years, you may want to familiarize yourself with it before the service starts or at home.

Here’s the bulletin for your use!

Chant Workshop and Evensong

For All Saints

Chant workshop and Evensong

Chant Workshop and All Saints Evensong

Here’s more information about the Chant Workshop:

The Chant Workshop will be led by Trinity’s Music Director, Christine Gevert. She will teach singers the theory and practice of chant in both Latin and English. Besides providing instruction about in the technical aspects of this ancient practice, this workshop is also a vehicle to experience the spiritual aspect of chanting.

The Workshop will conclude with a public All Saints Evensong at 7 PM. It will include the chants learned in the workshop and some hymns. Trinity Choir singers and some guests will also sing Spanish and English Renaissance Polyphony. Singers that want to participate in this polyphonic repertoire, need to contact Ms. Gevert and will be invited to a prior rehearsal. Scores will be provided ahead of this rehearsal.

To register for the workshop, please send an email to: lesinegales@yahoo.com The workshop is free of cost.
Participants are asked to bring some food to share for a light potluck dinner.

Sunday Bulletin for October 2

This Sunday, October 2, is the Sunday we celebrate the Feast of St. Francis and hold our annual blessing of the animals.

Unlike many churches that separate the pet blessing from their worship, we do the two together — during the 10:30 AM Holy Eucharist!

Pets do need to be leashed or caged, but otherwise, bring them along!  We’re always surprised at how well they conduct themselves, even in an unfamiliar place with other animals and people they don’t know.

If you’re worried about what you will do with your pet when you are receiving Communion, worry no more.  Just look for someone wearing one of these badges and let him (or her) take care of your pet for those moments.

Bulletin for Sunday, July 3

Here’s the bulletin for services at Trinity Lime Rock on Sunday, July 3, 2016.

Note that this Sunday we’re having Morning Prayer at both the 8 AM service and at the 10:30 AM service instead of our customary Holy Eucharist.  Pastor Heidi is on vacation right now, and this brings both a change in pace and an opportunity for older Episcopalians to remember the way things were when Morning Prayer was the usual Sunday service, and Holy Eucharist was the exception.

Music Director in Bolivia

==On the World Stage==

Trinity’s Music Director (and founding Artistic Director of Crescendo), Christine Gevert, will be in Bolivia for the next few days, performing at the XI Early Music Festival , the largest festival of Early Music in the world (more than 1000 musicians from all over the world, playing 146 concerts over ten days).  Christine is slated to perform six of those concerts.

One of hers will be on the sole  historic organ that survived from the days of the Jesuits in colonial times, and we’re hoping she brings back recordings.   Here’s the schedule for the Festival:
