We need everyone who worships with us, including the many thousands from around the globe who have listened to at least one webcast, to consider making a pledge in support of our mission.

Music notes: Harold Darke (1888-1976) was Organist of St. Michael’s, Cornhill in the City of London for fifty years (1916-1966). He was previously assistant to Walford Davies at the Temple Church, and studied composition under Stanford at the Royal College of Music. He was Acting Organist at King‚Äüs College, Cambridge during World War II, when Boris Ord was on military service. Darke’s Communion Service in F was composed in 1926, and dedicated to the Reverend John Ellison, Rector of St. Michael’s, Cornhill. It remains one of the most widely-sung settings of the Mass throughout the Anglican Communion.
