THE WEDNESDAY REPORT: August 3, 2022

Dear Partners in Ministry,
August and Potlucks and Concerts, oh my. Lots happening at the moment!

POTLUCK TOMORROW!

Just a reminder that we're partying at the Kuerbitz residence tomorrow night at 6 (for the address or more info, email me). If you are coming and haven't told me yet, please do today if at all possible. Thanks!

CONCERT SERIES

Saturday night is our first event in this year's Concert Series! We welcome the Mignarda Ensemble at 7:30 pm. Please join us for a wonderful evening of music by Elizabethan composer William Byrd and his contemporaries.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! I am in need of two to four people to help as greeters and program hander-outers, two people to attend to the Freewill Offering with me, and maybe a little help sweeping the pews afterwards for programs and such. This one is pretty low-impact for us, but help is needed and much appreciated!

REHEARSALS IN AUGUST...

As a reminder, we won't rehearse tomorrow night due to the potluck.

AUGUST 11–18: REGULAR REHEARSALS

As much as I would like to hold sectional nights, this just isn't the time to do so. Let's do regular rehearsals on these nights instead, and aim to do some sectional work in October as we prepare for the Gaudete concert.
