Music Sunday
May 17th
“Sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs making melody to the Lord, giving thanks to God at all times and for everything in the name of our Savior Jesus Christ.” – Ephesians 5:19
What a blessing it is to have so many members willing and able to share their gift of music. Many thanks to all who participate and those who lead.

Music Sunday is an annual celebration which serves as a way of giving back and reaching out to the community. Join us on Sunday, May 17th at both the 8:30 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. worships.
Bells of Praise, St. Luke’s Choir and Jubilee Praise Team will be featured during both worships and culminating with a closing number performed by all 3 groups and the congregation.
"As a worship leader I have the satisfaction of knowing that I along with Jubilee are being used by God to reach out, bringing someone a little closer to God. Jubilee adds variety through music to worship at St. Luke’s and I thank Jubilee members for their dedication and support. If you would like to participate with our Jubilee Worship Team, we meet Thursdays at 7:00 PM in the St. Luke’s sanctuary. If you have any questions, I invite you to call the St. Luke’s office at 952-881-5801. See you there" – Greg Anderson
"As I conclude my third year as St. Luke's Choir director, I continue to be amazed at the dedication and commitment these singers have to our congregation. They work extremely hard to prepare choir anthems that both enhance the worship experience and, as much as possible, support the readings and the message through song. As a group, we strive to bring joy to all that we do and, more importantly, that we care, love and pray for each other. We would love to have you join this group of singing volunteers. Rehearsals are on Wednesdays from 7:00-8:30 p.m. (September through May). If interested, do not hesitate to contact me at patrickl@stlukesbloomington.org" - Patrick Lair
“The Bells of Praise ministry is unique in that one person (ringer) plays only two notes. In order to play most of our songs, there are 11-13 ringers needed. We continue to learn how two notes are important in one section, but not in another section. We learn different techniques to bring surprise and somber to different scores. It continues to be a joy to work with this family of musicians, where we care for each other, strive to help the listener feel the glory and mystery of our faith, while having a great deal of fun. Our rehearsals at Wednesdays at 5:45-6:45 pm (September through May) and we perform the 4th Sunday of each month. Let me know if you want to give ringing a try next fall.” Alanna.k9@gmail.com – Alanna Teragawa
Although Jubilee continues to lead worship at the10:00 a.m. service throughout the summer, the 8:30 a.m. service is without choir and bells. If you or someone you know might be interested in offering special music (instrumental, solos, duets, trios, etc.) at the 8:30 a.m. service this summer, please let Lori Murray know so that she can coordinate. Lori can be reached at lorim@stlukesbloomington.org
HAVE A WONDERFUL SUMMER!
