Blues Vespers
What is Blues Vespers?
Vespers is the traditional word for evening worship marked by music and prayer. Blues Vespers is a way of combining a time for reflection and prayer with blues music.
Blues music and its cousin, gospel music, often expresses in its words and music human joy, longing, passion and pain. An evening’s music reminds us that God is there for us in all of life, often in the places where we are most human.
Blues, like many other forms of music, can help express what we experience in life. At times music can be prayer. At other times God speaks to us as we listen and are entertained by the music. Musicians often find music a form of spiritual expression.
With all that said, there are times we simply enjoy listening to good music – which in itself is pretty nice and can nourish our souls.
Music
At Immanuel, we recognize and experience the deep sense of joy, spirituality, and connectedness inherent in the act of making music together.
Deacons
Deacons are elected officers whose primary goal is to be sure the congregation is cared for. Deacons take meals to the ill and grieving; provide rides to those who need one; visit members and friends who may not be able to get out to Sunday Services or church events; furnish the cake for Birthday Sunday; provide assistance to walk-ins who might need a bus pass or a food card and they sponsor quarterly Adult Lunch and Social time.
The Deacons are always open to new ideas about how they can serve Immanuel's family and friends.
