The Fifth Sunday After Pentecost
Almighty God, the fountain of all wisdom, who knowest our necessities before we ask and our ignorance in asking: Have compassion, we beseech thee, upon our infirmities, and those things which for our unworthiness we dare not, and for our blindness we cannot ask, mercifully give us for the worthiness of thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. (Proper 11)

We welcome today the Choir of Merchant Taylor’s School, Middlesex, UK, Mr. Richard Hobson, Director, Ms. Joan Stubbs, Assistant Director of Music, and Mr. Alexander Pott, Organ Scholar.
‚ñ∫Whether you attend the service in person or listen via the webcast, you might notice that the organ sounds unusual. That is because you are hearing a different organ! During the summer choir holiday, our main organ blower, which dates from 1913, is undergoing essential maintenance and restoration. The Rector’s April Chronicle describes this in more detail, as does the Rector’s Weekly Message for the week beginning June 26. We are fortunate in having the Loening-Hancock organ on the gallery, and the Martha Dodge continuo organ in the choir to help lead our worship in the absence of the Arents Memorial Organ. But in order to provide accompaniments for some of the visiting choirs, we have moved the 3 manual Allen Electronic organ from the Choir School and placed it in the choir to be used when necessary. When you go up to receive communion, you will notice that there are several speakers visible in the choir stalls. Read more about the new organ project (and see photos of the removal of the organ blower) and please consider making a donation.¬†
‚ñ∫We are currently in the green season of these weeks after Pentecost. The Rector speaks of this season in his Weekly Message for the week beginning July 17.
‚ñ∫Holy Communion is distributed today at the High Altar rail only, and not at the Chantry rail. If you (or someone you are with) are unable to navigate the stairs up to the high altar and need communion brought to you on the floor of the nave, do not hesitate to contact the Verger in advance, and then let an usher know when you arrive.
