Saturday, March 22nd, 7pm
We're proud to be hosting a concert on Saturday, March 22nd, at 7 pm, featuring the excellent musical talents of Betty and the Baby Boomers.
To many Hudson Valley residents, Betty and the Baby Boomers (Betty Boomer, Jean Valla McAvoy, Paul Rubeo, Robert Bard, and Steve Stanne) are the voice of the Hudson River, having taught and sung about the river for more than 30 years.
They have been recognized regionally – they "sing and play old-school folk like it was brand spanking new" (Kingston's Daily Freeman); nationally – "a refreshing reminder of the halcyon days of American folk music" (Sing Out!); and internationally, with many bookings over the years for Clifden Arts Week, a well-known festival in Ireland.
Admission is $15 / person (suggested donation).
For more information about the Boomer's visit: BettyAndTheBabyBoomers.com

As I was praying & pondering my note for June, I happened to see that Bishop Egensteiner’s message had arrived in my emailbox!
His words spoke the message that was welling up inside me. And his writing is far more elegant than mine. So I share his message with you.

- Do you recognize and celebrate Black History Month?
- Do you recognize and celebrate Women’s History Month?
- And what about other opportunities to recognize and celebrate diversity and inclusion?
- Have you ever thought about the slight difference in these words: diversity / divisiveness; inclusion / exclusion?

Palm Sunday, March 24th, marks the end of our Lenten journey and the beginning of Holy Week when we embark on a sacred journey as we prepare our hearts and minds to reflect on the profound events of Jesus' final days. Join us this week to contemplate themes of love, sacrifice, and hope.
As a special and wonderful gift this year for our Good Friday worship. Kairos: A Consort of Singers, a capella vocalist group will share their astonishingly beautiful music woven throughout the reading of The Passion on Good Friday.
This Easter Sunday we are extremely please to once again have live trumpet player in addition to organ music, and choir performing in praise and glory of our risen and glorious Savior, Jesus Christ. A light fare of bagels, fruit, and coffee will allow us to continue the celebration after worship. Additionally, “no plastic” Easter baskets will be waiting for the youngest among us, and to be brought home to grandchildren and great nieces and nephews.
