If you have ever wondered when is the best time to join the choir here at Edwards Church, I’ll let you know January is not too shabby! Here’s why. We just got done with our full fall semester, which made us very busy through December. What that means is we never had time to look […]
Standing Committees
From the Chancel Committee
The Chancel committee would like to thank everyone who donated poinsettias for this Christmas season. We were able to purchase several dozen plants to help decorate the sanctuary. Cindy Booth for the Chancel Committee
Our Little Wooden Banks
In November we had one donation to our fund for a total of $9.00. I will report any expenditures to you. This fund is used for needs of our church which are not included in our annual budget. See me if you would like to have one of our new little church banks. Many thanks […]
The Most Wonderful Time
When I first came to Edwards, I admit I thought “I don’t know about these Advent anthems…” simply because they are a collection of less familiar pieces at a time of the year when secular interests are completely consumed with full-on Christmas texts and tunes. But then I returned to “Prepare Ye” and “He Come […]
So Many Blessings!
When I selected the anthems for November, I decided that I would go with recent favorites, given October had its share of unfamiliar pieces. And I was surprised by what I found: our three stewardship anthems include the word “blessings” in the title. How appropriate for our congregation! As we focus on the gifts we […]

Choir Collaborations
The choir gets to celebrate a few special collaborations this month. We will sing (for only its second time) the beautiful anthem “Grace Alone” which features guest cello and our own Jane Ezbicki on violin, each of whom will join Susan for some of the other pieces at the service. We will also collaborate with […]
Choir Returns!
As you can imagine, I’m overjoyed with the number of exciting fall services and programs that I’m sure are covered extensively elsewhere in this Steeple. As I have thought over the worship themes I’ve come up with a series of wonderful anthems, many of which will be familiar to those who have worshiped with us […]
Summer Music
In our bidding farewell to the choir this summer we left our music program in the expert hands of Susan and Cheryl until just after Labor Day. Would you be interested in providing special music at some point in July or August as a prelude, offering, or postlude? Summer is a great time to do […]
