Last night we held our last rehearsal in the old building, and celebrated with a funny treat. We had cupcakes with little martians on this. It is part of an inside joke. We love the old St. Michaels dearly, especially its wonderful acoustic and the great memories. However, everyone knows that it looks a bit funny (built in 1965). There was long-standing disagreement on whether it looked more like a cupcake or an alien ship. So we had cupcakes with little aliens on them!

The schola is singing at the dedication of the new Church building, Sunday at 10:00am. In particular, we are singing the offertory with the motet Sancte Deus by Thomas Tallis. We are also singing the Communion proper for the occasion from the Graduale Romanum, with Psalm verses.

The new building looks extremely beautiful. We are so proud of it, and especially grateful for the leadership of Monsignor William Skoneki who saw this project through from start to finish. Masterful job!
