 Resurrection’s
First Annual Homecoming
On September 14 Church of the Resurrection will hold its
First Annual Homecoming to welcome former parishioners for a day of worship,
celebration, food, and fellowship. A reception will follow the service to
provide a chance to renew acquaintances with old friends and to update them
on what the Church of the Resurrection has been doing to be "the hands of
the Lord in this place." This event is inspired by last year’s commemoration
of Robert Reeves’ ministry as choir director when a number of former choir
members and parishioners returned to honor Robert. Many who participated in
the event commented on the sense of community and continuity they felt
through re-connecting in this way. From this came the idea of an annual
event and September 14 will be our first Resurrection Homecoming.
Right now you can help prepare
for this event by contributing the names and addresses of former
parishioners with whom you have kept in touch. We are not looking for
contact information only for those who have moved away from the D.C. area;
we recognize that many of these individuals will not be able to return for
this event. But, we also know that there are many former parishioners who
have moved within the metropolitan D.C. area and who now attend other
churches closer to their new homes. Please share contact information for
these individuals so that we can invite them to our Homecoming. The
information can be sent to Kat Turner at
ksturner@aamc.org or left at the church
office marked for her attention.
Come to Choir Camp!
Attention all you 'like-to-sing'ers! (and this includes
existing choir members!) Come join the fun at "Choir Camp" in the church
hall on Saturday, September 13th. Everyone in the parish is invited to
participate in this learning and singing extravaganza where the emphasis
will be on choral singing. Don't worry if you've never learned to read music
- simple instructions and expert guidance will be provided. "Choir Camp"
will start at 9:30 a.m. with some basic theory on reading music notation for
singers. Other topics will include sight-reading, diction and phrasing for
singers and how to vocally blend in choral groups. Finally, we'll put it all
together and sing as a choir, accompanied by our own organist
extraordinaire, Sanelma Sutton. There will be a noontime break at which
lunch will be provided. "Choir Camp" will end at approximately 3:00 p.m.
Please contact Deena Jaworski at
deekat@his.com
or 703-698-0886 if you want to be a "camper." Come
and sing the day away with the Resurrection Choir
 LIVING
THE QUESTIONS
Join us for
a viewing of the remarkable video discussion series, "Living the
Questions." In this video series notable theologians and bible scholars
hold up the value of being led through our journey toward faith, not by
easy answers, but by challenging questions. Please join the discussion at
11: 15 am each Sunday morning. You are also invited to come to the service
that takes place immediately before the video at 10 am.
TUESDAY EVENING BIBLE DISCUSSION
A new group has
formed to review and discuss the readings that we will hear the coming
Sunday. Please join us on Tuesdays from 7:30-8:30 pm. All are warmly
invited to attend. To access the Sunday readings, click on the green
button on the left of this page.
Come and see!
