Worship Life
Music Notes
Lord, transfigure our perception
With the purest light that shines,
And recast our life’s intentions
To the shape of Your designs,
Till we seek no other glory
Than what lies past Calvary’s hill
And our living and our dying
And our rising by Your will.

February is a transitional month – from the glory of Epiphany to the reflection of Lent. All our music groups are making the transition in the anthems we are working on, and all of them welcome new members. If you would like more information on any of our choirs or instrumental ensembles, please feel free to call Ruth at 385-2183.
Christus Choir will meet on February 8 at 10:00 in the chapel to begin working on our anthems for Lent. All singers who are available for daytime rehearsals and worship services are welcome! For more information, please contact Ruth.
Many thanks to everyone who enriched our Advent and Christmas worship services with their gifts of music. May God continue to bless each member of Our Savior with the song of the joy of the redeemed.
Martin Luther said, “Next to the Word of God, music deserves the highest praise.” Was that because both those gifts of God nourished and enriched his soul when so much else around him was stressful and draining? I wonder about that now as I seek those nourishing things and find that my devotional times and my music-making times do indeed “restore my soul.” How about you? The new year is a good time to join a music group – we start fresh with new music and prepare for the seasons of Epiphany, Lent, and Easter. Please feel free to give Ruth a call at 385-2183 for more information on any of our choirs or instrumental ensembles.
We are looking for a new ringer for Peals of Praise this January. High-school through adult musicians with some note-reading ability are welcome in this group! To volunteer, or for more information, please contact Ruth. Peals of Praise resumes rehearsals on Wednesday, January 4, at 6:30 p.m.
Are you a pianist? We know you’re out there … :) and we would love to have you share your gift on the beautiful Pramberger grand piano! Interested in contributing special music for worship? Please let Ruth know!
Our Savior's Music Ministry exists, above all, to provide musicians with oportunities to express their faith in worship. We also strive to help each participant develop his/her musical skills to the glory of God. We do this through vocal choirs, handbell choirs and instrumental ensembles and opportunities for solos and small groups.
Ruth is in the office Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, & Friday.
