Sunday, November 17th: Trinity Choir and Praise Team to sing

November 17th at 3:00 is the Covenanting Service with Rev. Sydney.

The choir and praise team will offer a music ministry song: Oh a Song Must Rise (MV 142). Please wear a uniform of black on the bottom (dress, skirt, or pants) and white or black on top (blouse, sweater, shirt...). 

We will be meeting 4 times to rehearse. You don't have to come to every rehearsal. Even if you arrive at 2:30 on Sunday the 17th, we welcome you to sing with us. 

Kevin is away but we'll have a supply ministry musician to accompany us at the service. For rehearsals, we have a recorded piano accompaniment. We'll see how we can make this hymn into a performance piece (anthem-ish). It might be as simple as having a solo or a section on one verse and a different section on another. We'll be sure to have a rousing chorus. We can adapt the arrangement to have two or three parts for harmonies and fun. 

Listen to this church choir sing it. I love what they've done to jazz it up. 

Singing out God's praises and glory, the faithful voices blend. Oh a song must rise for the spirit to descend.

Come and blend your faithful voice with ours.

Singing Together in July and August

I posted this on my YRCC blog, and I think it applies to my Trinity Singers too. While we’re not singing together in July and August, please find opportunities to sing in other places and with other people.  You can always sing in your car and in your kitchen. You can accept all invitations to cottages, camping, and beach days, and do some campfire singing. Or, sing while you paddle around in a lake. Sound carries over water, so have some buddies join you if you’re not comfortable with a solo performance.  Orchestrate some backyard sing-alongs if you can.  Singing outdoors in the summer is an opportunity you don’t want to miss. I’ve enjoyed the free concerts in Aurora and Newmarket in the past. They have ‘tribute bands’ who perform all the hits you know, and you’ll want to sing and dance along. (would be nice if they projected the lyrics for us, because we're used to having those words now) I’ve added these concerts to my YRCC Calendar to encourage my choristers to go. I’...

June 5th, 2025 Sing-along Café is Outdoors!

We're going to be outside, singing along with a cover band, Telltale Sounds, at the 2025 Newmarket Music Series Lineup Launch Party! Then, we'll sing and dance to Glenn Marais and the Mojo Train!  I think we'll want to bring lawn chairs, and maybe a snack and a beverage. There will be a food truck there if you want to get something fun.  We are asked to bring a Food Bank Donation. We'll head down together on foot from the Park Street entrance at 6:15. Hopefully that will be early enough to get parking behind the church and get a spot to sit at Riverwalk Commons.  We'll walk across Main Street, down the stairs to the parking lot, and across towards the community centre, unless some of us have issues with stairs, then we'll go down the ramp at the next block that ends up just behind the community centre.  Wear comfortable shoes and dress for the weather (should be perfect, not too warm, not too cool). I'm a big fan of these free summer concerts. Can't wait...
