Courier 2021-8.Indd Christ Church, Georgetown The Courier Parish Newsletter, September 2021 Vol. XXXVII, No. 1 The Rector’s Letter My Dear Friends, What a delight it is to introduce this issue of The Courier and the rebirth of life of our church this fall as we regather after the worst of Covid and launch into a new period of life and growth in our beloved parish. Please also read, if you haven’t already, my regathering letter, which you can see at this link. This Homecoming Sunday, September 12, at 10:00 a.m. is the most important for many years. This is our opportunity to put the worst of the pandemic behind us and to begin our common life again in earnest. We are applying to close the street outside the Church for games and activities for the children and for church groups to set out tables with information about what they are about, if they would like to do that. It will be a great celebration of who we are, and the precious nature of our parish community. As you come back, you will see several new faces. In our worship through the pandemic and since we reopened last September, we have seen a steady trickle of new people coming into the life of our church. They have come for the same reasons many of us came: for beautiful traditional worship, inspiring preaching, and outstanding music; for a church that leaves politics at the door, a community that seeks to serve others, and that studies, discusses, and seeks fellowship with each other, as well as welcoming new people into fellowship, witness, and service. We have another New Members Course scheduled for two upcoming Saturdays, September 25 and October 9, from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. with Confirmation and Reception arranged for Sunday, October 24, at 5:00 p.m. For some thoughts on what membership is about, please follow this link. If you would like to serve on a committee or a guild, click here for some thoughts on the Christian leadership involved. In this issue of The Courier, you will see advertised many groups and activities for all ages, along with many opportunities for service. Our various worship guilds are all looking for some new members to be trained and become involved. The Altar, Flower, Acolytes, Ushers, Lectors, and Chalice Bearers Guilds, and our newest “Gethsemane Guild” that live-streams all our 11:15 a.m. services, have, together, some 200 members when they are all up to strength, but we always welcome more people to share in supporting the most important thing we do, the worship of God, in which we offer the best we have to offer week by week. Through the Mission Committee we give a tithe or 10 percent of our pledged income to support a strong list of mission partners locally and around the world. Grate Patrol will resume in September and, together with the shelter we hope to offer opportunities to serve for a similar number of parishioners as those who support worship. You will also see that our St. Francis Guild also have programs for the fall. Continued on next page The Christ Church Courier Continued from previous page The parish newsletter of Christ Church, Georgetown, published periodically between September and June. Opportunities for Christian education and formation are many at Christ Church. You will see great plans and a new Timothy A. R.

Please note that the Bishop of Washington, the Right Reverend Mariann Edgar Budde, is scheduled to visit Christ Church on Sunday, October 24, at 5:00 p.m. It is our hope that she will confi rm or receive those who have completed the course that afternoon. 2 The Courier—September 2021 Stewardship These pledge gifts allowed Sunday School for more than 90 children to go ahead, largely online. The feeding ministry shifted to serving Saturday Night Suppers to 45 or 50 homeless neighbors, in partnership with other Georgetown congregations. Our parish’s support of a number of other vital causes in the broader community also continued. And, of course, the fine CCG staff was kept on payroll, and utility bills were paid. This financial stability during a crisis is a great distinction for our clergy, administrators, the Vestry, and those of us in the pews. Yet, the number of individuals who made pledges and the amounts pledged in 2020 and 2021 were down from pre-pandemic levels. One consequence is that reliance on using a portion of endowment earnings to support operations continues. To return pledging to 2019 levels and improve significantly from there, the Stewardship Committee seeks your ideas, constructive criticism, and suggestions. During August and early September, a survey is being conducted to gain a better understanding of how well the congregation understands the existing pledge program and how we use it. We also ask that you offer your thoughts directly to any member of the committee. As Christ Church, our city, and our nation move past closed The Stewardship Committee is led by co-chairs Shelley church doors, lockdowns and the worst of the Covid-19 Rodgers and Tom Casey and includes Newman Ainslie, pandemic, our church is taking a fresh look at stewardship.

  • Choral Evensong on the Second Sunday After Pentecost
    Saint Mark’s episcopal cathedral seattle, washington Choral Evensong on the second sunday after pentecost June 6, 2021 4:30 pm C horal Evensong in this cathedral is a tiny fragment of some- thing else: it is part of the worship which is offered to God by Christian people every hour of the day and night, in every part of the world. When you experience Evensong, it is as if you were dropping in on a conversation already in progress—a conversation between God and his people which began long before you were born and which will continue long after your death. So, do not be surprised or disturbed if there are some things which you do not understand straight away. For a brief moment, you step into the continual stream of worship which is being offered today and which will be offered to the end of time. You are one with those who worship here on earth and in heaven. —adapted from the Evensong bulletin of Saint Paul’s Cathedral, London. Saint Mark’s episcopal cathedral Saint Mark’s Cathedral acknowledges that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Seattle, the Duwamish People, who are still here, and we honor with gratitude the land itself and the life of the Duwamish Tribe. To all members of the Saint Mark’s Cathedral community, and visitors and guests near and far, welcome to Saint Mark’s Cathedral’s livestream-only service of Choral Evensong. Everyone participating in Saint Mark’s Cathedral’s worship at this time in any way is invited to make an offering as an expression of gratitude for God’s generosity.

  • CHURCH | 7 PM APRIL 8, 2020 Choral Compline
    CHORAL COMPLINE FOR HOLY WEEK CHURCH | 7 PM APRIL 8, 2020 Choral Compline Taking its name from the Latin “to complete,” Compline is the final daily Divine Office. These are the last of the church’s daily prayers. Drawing from the riches of our liturgical heritage, including monasticism, our manner of offering this ancient liturgy at Saint Michael and All Angels in an entirely sung form entails much prayer offered on behalf of all by the Compline Choir. This allows those attending to principally participate inwardly as well as in a more personalized manner. Choral Compline with the Compline Choir, as heard tonight, is offered at Saint Michael every Sunday night at 8 pm in the candlelit church during the program year. Following a return to our regular worship schedule on campus, we invite you to join us regularly in concluding the weekend with meditation, contemplation, and prayer.

  • Choral Evensong: September 2, 2021 Aidan and Cuthbert
    Bede’s Life of Cuthbert, 12th century Choral Evensong: September 2, 2021 Aidan and Cuthbert Choral Evensong: September 2, 2021 Aidan and Cuthbert, Saints & Bishops of Lindisfarne (d. 651, 687 A.D.) Derived from the ancient monastic evening offices of Vespers and Compline, Evensong (literally “Evening Song”) is an almost entirely sung service. Thomas Cranmer, the first Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, combined the above two Roman Catholic monastic offices into one Anglican lay office, characterized by the chanting of psalms and the singing of the principal canticles from each – the Magnificat from Vespers and the Nunc dimittis from Compline. This felicitous pairing, and the mystical atmosphere of a church at dusk, have fired the imaginations of many of the Anglican Church’s greatest musicians. Please note that the texts to some of the sung items may differ slightly from what is printed in the modern Book of Common Prayer, particularly the Suffrages. Numbers preceded by “BCP” are found in the Book of Common Prayer (Black Book) Numbers preceded by “S” are in the front portion of the 1982 Hymnal (Red Book) The Organ Voluntary: Magnificat I, Op. 18, No. 10 Marcel Dupré (1886-1971) All stand at the entrance bells as the ministers enter the Church The Invitatory and Psalter The Invitatory: Preces Richard Ayleward (1626-1669) Officiant O Lord, open thou our lips; Choir And our mouth shall show forth thy praise. Officiant O God, make speed to save us; Choir O Lord, make haste to help us. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: world without end.

  • Choral Evensong
    CHORAL EVENSONG 5:00 P.M. SUNDAY, APRIL 6, 2014 THE FIFTH SUNDAY IN LENT CHRIST CHURCH 118 N. WASHINGTON ST. ALEXANDRIA, VA 22314 www.HistoricChristChurch.org CHORAL EVENSONG is the service of Evening Prayer with choral music. It is sung in cathedrals with choral foundations on a more or less daily basis, and in many parish churches around the world. The Prayer Book of 1662 established the pattern for Choral Evensong which remains in common usage throughout the worldwide Anglican Communion. Since the earliest Christian times, the need to mark the passing of time with prayer has been recognized. The monastic cycle of prayer began in the desert with Anthony in the fourth century and continues to this day. By the Reformation, Vespers had become an elaborate musical celebration in the evening. The English Reformation demanded that the vernacular be the language of worship and resulted in the liturgical simplicity of Thomas Cranmer’s services of Morning and Evening Prayer. The provision of music for this structure and these words was the task of men like Tallis, Byrd, Gibbons, and Tomkins, whose creativity laid the foundations of Anglican choral worship. Choral Evensong is the quintessence of such worship. The canon of music for Evensong continues to grow, with composers from around the world contributing to it. Unlike the Eucharist, which follows the movement of the Church calendar, and unlike private prayer, which follows the events of our lives, the daily office follows its own rhythm. The readings are done “in course,” and are not specifically chosen to make a particular point, and the canticles (Magnificat and Nunc dimittis) are the same each day.

Description of Ensemble: Westminster Kantorei is an auditioned chamber choir specializing ​ in early music. Composed of graduate and undergraduate students, the ensemble has performed with some of America’s leading specialists in early music, including the Dark Horse Consort, Julliard 415 and others. It was awarded First Place in the 2018-2019 American Prize in Choral Performance, College and University Division. Authors: Taylor Cullen and Kelly Zuzic ​ Grade Level(s): 10-12 ​ Lesson 1 Lesson Description: This lesson provides a brief overview to chant, chant notation, and the ​ importance of word stress in music.

  • Thomas Tallis the Complete Works
    Thomas Tallis The Complete Works Tallis is dead and music dies. So wrote William Byrd, Tallis's most distinguished pupil, capturing the esteem and veneration in which Tallis was held by his fellow composers and musical colleagues in the 16th century and, indeed, by the four monarchs he served at the Chapel Royal. Tallis was undoubtedly the greatest of the 16th century composers; in craftsmanship, versatility and intensity of expression, the sheer uncluttered beauty and drama of his music reach out and speak directly to the listener. It is surprising that hitherto so little of Tallis's music has been regularly performed and that so much is not satisfactorily published. This series of ten compact discs will cover Tallis's complete surviving output from his five decades of composition, and will include the contrafacta, the secular songs and the instrumental music - much of which is as yet unrecorded. Great attention is paid to performance detail including pitch, pronunciation and the music's liturgical context. As a result new editions of the music are required for the recordings, many of which will in time be published by the Cantiones Press. 1 CD 1 Music for Henry VIII This recording, the first in the series devoted to the complete works of Thomas Tallis, includes church music written during the first decade of his career, probably between about 1530 and 1540. Relatively little is known about Tallis’s life, particularly about his early years. He was probably born in Kent during the first decade of the sixteenth century. When we first hear of him, in 1532, he is organist of Dover Priory, a small Benedictine monastery consisting of about a dozen monks.

    LIGHTEN OUR DARKNESS MUSIC FOR THE CLOSE OF DAY including THE OFFICE OF COMPLINE The Cambridge Singers directed by John Rutter LIGHTEN OUR DARKNESS MUSIC FOR THE CLOSE OF DAY Compline (pronounced ‘com-plin’, from the Latin completorium, completion), is the last of the seven daily ‘offices’ or worship services observed in Catholic monastic and collegiate communities, taking place immediately before bedtime. It is a brief, simple service, a preparation for sleep, built, like all the daily offices, around the chanting or recitation of psalms. To these are added some antiphons and responses, a scripture reading, a hymn (generally Te lucis ante terminum), the canticle Nunc dimittis, the Evening, the meeting point of day and night, has always been regarded as an Apostles’ Creed and Lord’s Prayer, confession and absolution, and a final blessing.The psalms appointed evocative and magical time, one which has inspired artists, poets and musicians for Compline are invariable: 4, 31, 91 and 134, of which 91 (Anglican numbering) seems to have been the earliest in general use and is the one chosen for this recording.At the close of the service, which down the ages.
