Spiritual Growth Through Music: Chestnuts and Macadamias

Leader: The Reverend Philip Carr-Jones, Rector, Church of the Holy Spirit,Lebanon, New Jersey

This is a one-day immersion in Holy Spirit through song, singing, music, and hymnody. Is surprise an aspect of worship Episcopalians value? Is a tradition simply an innovation that stuck? What is the balance between known and fresh? Is there a difference between a hymn and a song?

We will sing both the familiar “chestnuts” and the lesser-known “macadamias” as we live an experience of God’s presence. Even if you can’t carry a tune, just come and be immersed in the moment.

Sponsored by the Right Onward Visioning Committee.
