Music expresses the rhythm of our souls. Above are the basic essential elements of experiences beyond our wildest imagination. They are the consonants and vowels of amazing compositions that take our hearts on flights of passion and our minds into the farthest reaches of the universe.
Martin Luther is quoted as saying, "Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul; it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us. Maya Angelou, “Music as my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness. Plato: Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and everything. Victor Hugo, “Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. This Sunday is our last class exploring spiritual disciplines and exercises before the retreat. We will explore how music creates the space where we encounter God. If you wish to be a participant in the retreat on Saturday, January 28, be sure to sign up either on the sign-up sheet in the Narthex or on-line.
