As we prepare our hearts and minds for worship, I’d invite you listen to this song as a way of preparing for worship this morning. It was recommended by our guest from a couple of weeks ago, Marva Wisdom.
“Blinded By Your Grace” – The Kingdom Choir
St. Andrew’s Territorial Acknowledgement
As we gather, we acknowledge that Indigenous people were here long before us who cared for this land and called it home. This territory has a rich history and was, and is to this day, considered sacred by many First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples. We have a responsibility to care for this land as their ancestors did and to continue to strengthen our relationships with our Indigenous neighbours.

After worship this morning, I’d invite you to reflect on these songs. The first is another selection from The Kingdom Choir – when they sang for the Royal Wedding of Harry and Megan. The second selection is a hymn from our Book of Praise written by Andrew Donaldson – one of the co-editors of the 1998 Book of Praise.
As we prepare our hearts and minds for worship, I’d invite you listen to this classic hymn as a way of preparing for worship this morning. It was shared by Thelma Roswell.

REMINDER: We will be sharing an informal Communion service near the end of the service – I’d invite you to find something bread-like and beverage-like (no judgement) in order to participate. If you are watching the recording, I’d encourage you to do the same since Christ makes the ordinary things of this world HOLY.
Taste and see that the LORD is good!
As we prepare our hearts and minds for worship, I’d invite you, since it is Trinity Sunday, to enjoy the hymn “Come, thou Almighty King” in three unique and glorious ways!

“Come, Thou Almighty King” – Saint Peter’s Catholic Church: Columbia, South Carolina

After worship this morning, I’d invite you to enjoy this song by the Shout Sister Directors and enjoy today’s sunshine! (St. Andrew’s hosts Shout Sister Guelph‘s practices – preCOVID – and we were blessed by a Shout Sister Take Over last year around this time in worship. The Choir’s Director Beth Becker (top left corner) is a wonderful part of our St. Andrew’s community and has offered to lead us in song one Sunday by ZOOM. Thanks Beth!) Enjoy the day that the LORD has made.

After worship this morning, I’d invite you to watch these clips. The first is a bit of an investment – the Polish composer Gorecki’s Symphony No. 3 is supposedly inspired in part by Lamentations. And the second is something a little more uplifting for Ascension Sunday… the hymn “Crown Him With Many Crowns” from an interesting venue!
Gorecki – Symphony No. 3
“Crown Him With Many Crowns” from Westminster Abbey on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth’s Coronation
