Woodroffe United Church offers you a West-end Ottawa church home within the fellowship of the United Church of Canada. We are a welcoming and caring community which includes a modern Church School program using the Feasting on the Word curriculum, an active outreach program, a dedicated pastoral care team and a broad variety of opportunities for worship and spiritual growth.
The final concert in our 2011-12 series features the Strings of St. John's with guest harpists Yolanda Kondonassis and Lucile Hildesheim.
The program is a preview of one the Strings of St John's will perform in the opening concert at the national convention of the American Harp Society in New York City on June 30. The programme will include:
Concerto for Celtic Harp and orchestra (Mark Mitchell)
Lucile Brais Hildesheim, soloist
Never Far Away (Bright Sheng)
Yolanda Kondonassis, soloist
A reception will follow the concert.
Feasting on the word with soup for the soul
Each Tuesday, at 12:30, you are invited, over a bowl of soup, to bring your questions and your experience as we share together and explore our upcoming Sunday readings.
This informal gathering will follow the lectionary passages on which Sunday morning worship services are based. Coma and shre in this fellowship as we grow and learn together, expanding our understanding of Scripture.
