Hello UUCS and Choir! I am enjoying my vacation in Boston, and it’s already August. Choir will start rehearsals on Thursday, August 29, 2024 from 6:30–8:00 p.m. I am changing the rehearsal schedule to start half an hour earlier this year, which I think will work better for the winter months. The choir rehearses every Thursday ...

Greetings and Happy Summer! I am heading out on vacation this week for the rest of July and most of August. We have some lovely song leaders and guest musicians lined up for services.

Verne Windham, a musician I admire, was known at KPBX as a “creative messy.” I understand that his desk was almost always piled high with papers and he was the only one who could find anything on it! I, too, have those questionable habits and recently had to “clean up my act” because of a ...

This coming month I will be looking for congregational members to help out with the summer music program. So I would be glad to talk to any of you with musical skills that may want to “get out there” to share your talents during June, July and August. You could either be a soloist — ...

Our Pianist, Maura Kegley, actually accompanies for two choirs in Spokane — our Mixed Choir here at church and the Spectrum Singers, an LGBTQ choir that is also getting back on its feet after COVID-19. Spectrum is having their big spring concert on Saturday, April 29, 2023 at 7:00 p.m. in the Shadle Park High School ...
