Music & Arts

In cathedral or cottage, the art of worship is an inner adventure which takes place

in private and in public. It is the practice of the presence of God. It is being

quiet and relaxed that we may experience the inflow of the peace that passes all

understanding. It is the offering of our hearts, our minds, and our gifts, according

to our calling, and living sacrifices; vessels, for God's own purposes, in our church

It is the counting of our many blessings and giving thanks for the power to grow, to

serve, to conquer ourselves and to discover the sublime values of the life of the Spirit.

It is not in just offering our best, but it is in offering all that we are, knowing that God,

as a loving parent, sees and hears first and foremost, the utterances of our hearts.
