THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction. ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
THEOLOGY ON TAP-TONIGHT
Theology on Tap’s next gathering will be hosted by Lloyd Prince (91 Lakeview Drive NE, Atlanta 30317) tonight at 7 p.m. The night’s program, led by Baron Mullis, will be “How do you know what to do when you don’t know what to do?” This month we’ll tackle the faith practice of discernment at TOT. All are welcome. RSVP to the church office at office@morningsidepc.org.
SPECIAL MUSIC SUNDAY
This Sunday, December 11, the Chancel Choir will present Antonio Vivaldi's "Gloria," serving as the main portion of the 11 a.m. worship service. Soloists will include Megan Mashburn and Tami Giusto, sopranos and Kate Murray, mezzo-soprano.
Vivaldi (1678-1741) is known as a master of the Italian Baroque style, his most famous composition being the series of violin concertos entitled "The Four Seasons." The "Gloria" is one of the most beloved choral masterpieces, and serves as a fitting seasonal offering when performed by choruses all over the world. Invite a friend and be blessed by this special service.
