The Music Corner
by Cora A. Gamelin-Osenbach

The music of the Lenten season makes us pause and ponder about our 40-day journey with Jesus. Then we can rejoice in the triumphant resurrection at the Easter Vigil with special offerings by Teagan and Elliot Wehr as we celebrate the return of “Alleluia” and the glorious music of Easter Day.

Concert Series
Please see the two flyers included in this edition of the TOPICS. Our next concert is on March 12 at 4 pm featuring the Fyve Woodwind Quintet. These five women are all seasoned performers and teachers and we are excited to welcome them back. On April 23, the Copeland String Quartet makes a return appearance topping off the 100th anniversary year of our Austin Organ, Op. 1040. What a season of celebration and thanksgiving!

Organ Fund Donations
Donations for the refurbishment of our 100-year-old Austin organ are a perfect opportunity to remember someone who has passed or in thanksgiving for the many blessings in your life. This work will be done sometime in the 2023-24 schedule of Murphy’s Organbuilders. It will ensure many more decades of our magnificent instrument in good working order.

Organ Fund Benefit Concert
What an incredible afternoon of varied music and superb performances heard on January 29. Thank you to all volunteers who helped in so many ways to make this concert a success and the artists who provided a feast for the ears. We continue to look for donations to meet our final goal, but we are well on our way to meeting that. Donations are always welcome.

Concert Receptions
As always, we are so pleased to offer wonderful times of fellowship and refreshment after our concerts. Please use the signup sheets for both March 12 and April 23 in the hallway at the bottom of the 2nd St. stairs or in the binder at the back of the church. This is so helpful in planning our receptions and we are so grateful for all of your offerings.
