The Byzantine Choral Inheritance by Cappella Romana

Made possible by generous support from The Saint John of Damascus Society and a grant from Cambridge Arts, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency, and The Saint John of Damascus Society at First Church in Cambridge, Cambridge MA

Vocal Ensemble Cappella Romana presents THE BYZANTINE CHORAL INHERITANCE with rarely heard music from the historic traditions of Byzantium and new works inspired by them.

Music Director Dr. Alexander Lingas will lead the first half of the program. The concert will begin with works in Greek from medieval Constantinople, followed by liturgical works by twentieth-century Greek American composers such as Tikey Zes, Theodore Bogdanos, and Frank Desby.

The second half, led by Associate Music Director John Michael Boyer, will feature the East Coast premiere of Heaven and Earth: A Song of Creation, a setting of Psalm 103. Commissioned by the Saint John of Damascus Society to celebrate the discovery of the Higgs boson, six composers: Tikey Zes, +Richard Toensing, GRAMMY-nominee Kurt Sander, Alexander Khalil, John Michael Boyer, and Matthew Arndt, each set a portion of the Psalm, creating a seamless tapestry.

Bible Studies in the Suffolk County Jail

Pre-pandemic, a team of us sponsored by the Boston Dream Center co-led “Soul Care” Bible Studies at the Suffolk County Jail, 200 Nashua Street for about 5 years.  Over 700 men participated. Although there is still a COVID masking restriction, there is a new possibility for volunteers to serve at the jail following background check and orientation.  We have been invited to relaunch Bible studies as soon as we can get a team together and get ourselves organized.  I invite you to a ZOOM information meeting June 9 – 7-8PM to explore this possibility with you.  (If you are unable to join the ZOOM meeting, but are still interested please contact me).

Our Spiritual Transformation: Exploring the Enneagram

Every day we brush up against people with blind spots, hot spots, and sweet spots; and we have them too! Sweet spots are places of connection, transparency, giftedness, and love; blind and hot spots reveal our false self ego. How can we get a clear view of ourselves? How can we change?

In Colossians 3 Paul says, “Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, …  rid yourselves of anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language. Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. As God’s chosen people, . . . put on compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. . . . Forgive as the Lord forgave you. . . . Put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.”

The Enneagram is a tool for transformation because it helps us recognize our heart motivations and provides us with ways of being intentional in our journey to love God and neighbor. The $55 cost covers food and materials.

Doug & Adele Calhoun are the presenters with two decades experience working with and teaching the Enneagram. They are co-authors of Spiritual Rhythms for the Enneagram; A Handbook for Harmony and Transformation. Annaliese Calhoun–also trained in the Enneagram and a spiritual director–will also present.  Email Doug Calhoun at calhounministries@gmail.com to register. Register by Feb 26; after that cost is $65.
