Easter Vigil Reception 
  

Please bring your food contributions to the Great Hall before services begin at 7:30 p.m. We need hosts to arrive by 6:30 pm to set up and plate the food. We need another group of hosts to remain a few minutes following the reception to clean up the area. Services normally run two hours so clean up should begin around 9:30 pm.   Many hands make work light so the more volunteers the easier the tasks.

We anticipate your response will be generous and loving as in the past and we thank you in advance for your participation.

Help Needed for Easter Sunday Brunch

We need at least 2 dishwashers to help with the Easter Sunday brunch. If more volunteer, we can stagger the shifts. The brunch will run from about 8:30 (after the 7:30 service) - 1:30 (after the 12:45 service).   Help us to feed the hungry (that would be us)!

Newcomers' Group

This Sunday we will join others in the Great Hall for breakfast. 

During our next meeting on April 15 we will discuss Ministry Opportunities.

New to Trinity Cathedral? We hope you can be a part of this Newcomers' Group. The sessions allow you to connect with others and learn more about offerings for you here at Trinity Cathedral. Come and learn about life at the Cathedral and opportunities for ministry. Contact Randi Strike: randiestrike@gmail.com.

Trinity Clean-Up Day Gives Us a Sparkle

The Chisum clan (Cindy, Bill, Rebecca & Elizabeth) spent the day cleaning the kitchen.

THANK YOU! To all of those who braved a stormy Saturday to help clean and spruce up the Cathedral in anticipation of Easter! Kevin Donohue organized and ran the event.  Alan Lovett, Rusty Robinson & Nixon Samabria came early to beat the rain and get some outside work done. Many of us worked on the inside of the Cathedral: John Ochoa, Linda and Bill Mason, Merrill Starr, Ann King, Kevin Sanders, Tracy Tschanz, Tom Robbins, Ben Thomas, Dwight Esch and members of the Altar Guild - Sue Clark & Chris Sanft. The Chisum clan focused on the kitchen and readied it for our Easter Brunch. Nancy and John Tennyson organized the attic storage area (which was in the same state as many attic storage areas).  Nancy Stoltz and Mattie Moody focused on getting easter eggs ready for the Saturday Eggstravaganza, while Ronnie Vaughn used the power washer on the solarium floor. Randy Cheek and Paul Brosio grilled hotdogs for a lunch that kept us going. Thank you for your hard work!

 

Listening Campaign

We plan to launch a large listening campaign with a goal to find an issue that is of concern to the majority of our church community and than work to make that change. We need interested people who would be willing to come to a training session on April 10 and than make a commitment to talk to 5 people for the next 5 weeks.  We have worked hard to plan and organize our campaign and have included input  and support from clergy and the Vestry.  If you enjoy spending 30 to 40 minutes talking to someone regarding what is on their minds and hearts, we encourage you to come and join us.  We plan to have completed our campaign by the end of May and  than report back to the congregation with the results.

Training date, time and location: Tuesday, April 10 from 6:30 to 8:00 PM at the Sacramento Area Congregations Together (ACT) Office,  2510 J St. Suite 200

If you  are interested contact Sally Smith, 930-9564 sally1369@comcast.net  or Allie  Swan 599-7614, allie@sacact.org

Anonymous 4 tickets now on sale

Friday, April 20 at 7:30pm

Tickets are now on sale for the Gala Concert by Anonymous 4, here at the Cathedral on Friday, April 20th at 7:30 pm.  With twenty-one best-selling recordings on the Harmonia-Mundi label, and numerous awards and sold-out concert tours, Anonymous 4 has made a significant mark in the classical music world during their twenty-five year tenure together.

Renowned for their unearthly vocal blend and virtuosic ensemble singing, the four women of Anonymous 4 combine musical, literary, and historical scholarship with contemporary performance intuition as they create ingeniously designed programs, interweaving music with poetry and narrative.

In addition to their unmatched medieval repertoire, Anonymous 4 has often reached out into the realm of contemporary music, and has premiered works by Peter Maxwell Davies, John Tavener, Steve Reich, Richard Einhorn and David Lang. The group has also expanded their repertoire to include traditional music of the British Isles and America.

Anonymous 4 has performed in major venues and festivals throughout North America, Europe and the Far East. The ensemble has appeared on numerous radio and television programs, including Garrison Keillor's "A Prairie Home Companion," "CBS Sunday Morning," A&E's "Breakfast With the Arts," and NPR's "Weekend Edition." Anonymous 4's award-winning recordings have attained unprecedented popularity, rising to the top of Billboard's classical chart, and selling almost 2 million copies worldwide.

Their "Anthology 25" concert will present a retrospect of the music which has shaped them during their twenty-five years together, and you will not want to miss this concert! Tickets: $30 general, $20 seniors and students.  Tickets may be purchased in the Cathedral Bookshop, as we expect a sold-out concert!  http://www.anonymous4.com/
