Thanks to the invitation of Vanderbilt Divinity School and Dr. Steph Budwey, you can find me on campus this week! Wednesday will be a full and rich day of learning and worship, and I’m excited to be part of ongoing conversations around welcome and singing in community.

9:30am-11am “Engaging Voices, Spoken and Sung” (Suite 119, with Worship Committee and open to the community)

11:15am-12pm Worship (The Space, Paul will lead us in music)

1:15-2:25pm “Creative Ideas for Proclaiming Sacred Texts” (G-43, Prof. Budwey’s Intro to Worship class and open to the community)

The sessions will explore the use of paperless music in worship and the varied applications of oral tradition learning and how it can be used to strengthen congregational singing and deepen into spaces of embodied, communal song (within and outside church).
