Sing Out This Summer with Your Favorite Hymns!

Andrew Butler • June 26, 2025

There is still time to submit your favorite hymn!

Dear Congregation,


As the warm rays of summer shine upon us, we are excited to bring a special musical initiative to our beloved Episcopal Church of St. Mary Magdalene and St. Martin. This summer, we are celebrating the hymns that resonate with our hearts by singing the favorite hymns chosen and submitted by our congregation members.


Throughout the season, you may notice a symbol of a speaker next to some of the hymn titles in our service bulletins. This icon signifies that the hymn is a favorite of one of our fellow congregants. When you see this symbol, we encourage you to sing out with joy and enthusiasm, knowing that you are sharing in the musical joy of a fellow church member. Just imagine the warmth you’ll feel when others sing your favorite hymn with the same gusto!


For those who haven't yet submitted their favorite hymn, there is still plenty of time. We will be embracing this harmonious celebration all summer long, so don’t hesitate to be part of this joyful tradition. You can submit your favorite hymn by emailing me, Andrew Butler, at andrew.butler@stmmcs.net.


Let’s make this summer a melodic celebration of faith and community through the hymns we cherish.


Blessings,


Andrew Butler


Director of Music

Advent isn’t about pretending everything is fine. It’s about remembering what’s true when fear gets loud: Emmanuel—God with us. And that presence gives us courage

Gaudete Sunday is not just about feeling brighter. It’s about deciding what kind of Church we will be. Because the Magnificat is clear: God lifts up the lowly.

Advent reminds us that courage isn’t loud: God meets fear with presence—Emmanuel—and calls ordinary people to take the next faithful step, together, in hope.

Last week, we talked about not sleepwalking through this season. This week, I think Advent presses us a little further: Where do I need to make room in our hearts?
