Lydia Pedersen has been graciously helping us through the Advent season as organist and choir conductor. Her last service with us in that capacity will be Sunday, December 27th, but we will not be saying good-bye to her. She will be helping us start up our handbell choir here at St. Andrew's in the new year. We sincerely thank her for bringing her talents to us and look forward to continuing to have her with us.
Mark Ruhnke will begin as Interim Director of Music in January. He is currently a student at Emmanuel College in Victoria University at the University of Toronto, and the first student to be enrolled in the Master of Sacred Music program there. You can read more about Mark in the November edition of Cornerstone. Please join us in welcoming him.
