News from the north: Saints Joachim and Ann Parish in Aldergrove, British Columbia, will be hosting the inaugural B.C. Sacred Music Symposium from July 20-22, 2018.
The aim is to bring together musicians of all skill levels, and all people of good will with a general interest in sacred music, for a weekend of instruction, collaboration and fellowship. There will be an opportunity to attend practical workshops (beginner, intermediate and masterclass) and lectures; and to experience the riches of the Church’s musical tradition in the celebrations of Mass, in both the Ordinary and Extraordinary Forms and the Divine Office.
We are also very excited to announce that our keynote speaker and celebrant of the symposium’s principal Mass will be Bishop Joseph Perry, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Chicago. Early registration for the symposium opens January 2018. Please see the parish website for more information: http://www.stsjoachimandann.org/symposium
