The 100th Anniversary Service was preceded by a lot of musical practice. The musical ministries of the church chose large thematic numbers to practice and feature for the day. Today’s blog is an audio blog, featuring sound clips from the service.
The service started off, as always, with the prelude. Matt Gender, organist, chose “Festive Trumpet Tune” by David German as his opening.
The next number I wanted to mention was that of the Jubilee Handbell Choir, that did a rendition of “It Is Well With My soul” by Bliss/Moklebust, that included the playing of an excellent violinist, Omari Abdul-Alim.
The choir did a rendition of “Now Thank We All Our God”, arranged by Mark Hayes, with soloist Ellen Garret and Jonathan Lightfoot.
Matt Gender finished with a postlude of “Carillon-Sortie by Henri Mulet.
Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.
