Music
The people of God sing; music is a gift of God
Music is capable of evoking powerful emotions. Music reaches and expresses our deepest feelings far more powerfully than words alone. Hearts are stirred and feet set to tapping. It is a reminder of God in the midst of the chaos and storms of life. The role of choirs and musicians is to aid the whole people of God in their worship.
St. Augustine’s Choir
After a long hiatus during COVID, the St. Augustine’s Choir is restarting. The choir is under the direction of the Missioner for Music, Henry Lebedinsky. The choir is generally accompanied on the church’s magnificent Pasi Pipe Organ, but the piano, flute, harp, cello and other instruments are also often heard. Contact the office for information about joining the choir.
The Sophia Singers
The Sophia Singers is a women’s a cappella group that provides music for numerous community events as well as occasional Eucharist celebrations at St. Augustine’s in-the-Woods.
