As most of you are aware, we recently participated in the new Congregational Renewal Cohort program at Pacific School of Religion. PSR launched a new program last summer: the Congregational Renewal Cohort. Epworth was invited to send a small team to join groups from other religious communities for a year of study, reflection, and projects as we grew as spiritual leaders and shepherds of congregational renewal work in our churches and temples. Our classes started in September

Ani Bukujian, violin, Saul Richmond-Rakerd, cello, Amy Zanrosso, piano with Caroline Lee, viola and So-Jung Kim, bass San Francisco-based Melos Trio combines virtuosic independence with refined, sensitive collaboration. Program will include Shostakovich Trio #2 in e minor and the beloved "Trout" Quintet by Schubert.
