In praise of St Paul’s choir

St Paul’s choir was the first in the diocese to take part in a new scheme at Christ Church Cathedral whereby parish groups were invited to stand in for the resident singers during the summer holidays.
This is what the writer of the Christ Church Cathedral notes in this month’s edition of the diocesan magazine,The Church Review, reports:
“On Sunday 6th July the choir of St Paul’s Church, Glenageary, came to sing at the Cathedral for the Sunday Eucharist. This delightful choir under the direction of Derek Verso gave of their best for the service.  Their singing was superb and the parish should be proud of having such a good choir.”
The choir needs new members, so if you, or anybody you know, is interested in finding out more, do contact the music director, Derek Verso on versod@indigo.ie. He is currently on holidays but choir practices will resume on Wednesday evenings in September.

Intern deacon to join parish in September

Ms Abigail Sines, a third-year ordinand in the Theological Institute, will be joining us in St Paul’s from Sunday, September 7th, as part of her continuing training for full time ordained ministry.  She will be ordained deacon in Christ Church Cathedral on Sunday, September 21st, at 3.30 pm, and will be with us on a part- time basis until June 2015.
During that time she will be combining her continuing studies with opportunities to gain some practical experience of ministry here. I know you will make her feel very welcome amongst us.
