Here’s an excerpt from the current issue:
The St. Joseph of Arimathea Seminary Summer Session ran from July 21st to the Feast of Saint James (July 25th). It was an entirely “zoomed” event. Mornings began at 9:00 a.m. with Morning Prayer followed by a 10:00 a.m. class in liturgics led by Bishops Hansen and Ashman. After a lunch break Canon Weber led a class in liturgical chant and hymns.
Many of us learned that we could begin taking our first steps in chanting. In all there were fifty-three participants: some for credit and others auditing. An added bonus was that many members of the Province met other members who had only been names. It was a magnificent experience.
