DETAILS

Music that Makes Community is excited to offer a One-Day workshop at St. Luke's Episcopal Church in Atlanta, GA in connection with The Hymn Society Conference. Join Ana Hernandez, Monica Oneydika, Adam Michael Wood, and Conie Borchardt for a renewing day of building community through singing, learning, and fellowship. During our time together we’ll: - Explore a practice of paperless (oral tradition) singing leadership grounded in a spirit of welcome and generosity; - Engage models of teaching and leading that welcome our bodies, hearts, and minds; - Experience music reflective of the growing diversity of our communities and celebrating our rich spiritual and liturgical traditions; - Build community and strengthen relationships through singing. Each person will leave with new music to share, as well as experiences of learning and teaching songs applicable to their context. Choir directors, clergy, cantors, lay leaders, and all who love to sing are warmly welcomed. COVID protocols: We will follow the guidelines at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in place at the time of the event and will take precautions to ensure the safety and well-being of all participants. The room will be well-ventilated, we’ll take regular breaks, and follow the CDC's best practices for in-person gathering.
