About Me

Greetings! I am Director of Music Ministries at St. John of the Cross parish in Western Springs, IL. The purpose of this blog is to give anyone who is interested insight into how music functions in our worship, and what goes on in my head as I prepare the musical end of liturgical prayer at our parish.

September 16--What I learned

This week I learned that no matter how well one plans, and no matter if the "short form" of the Gospel has ever been used in the 5 years I've been here, that under Murphy's Law the week you pick all music to totally fit the parable of the Prodigal Son the only priest with two liturgies will decide to use the short form of the Gospel, which--surprise surprise--does not contain the parable of the Prodigal Son.

Sigh.

Fortunately, I also learned that lots of the music for the Prodigal Son also fits for the other readings pretty well.:-)

peace,
Jennifer
