Calendar:

May 10-17, 2020

This Sunday will be the Fifth

Sunday of Easter. We continue

our celebration of the glorious

news of the Resurrection of our

Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! The

Easter season continues until the

Day of Pentecost which will be

celebrated on May 31. We also

celebrate Mother’s Day today as

well as Moravian Music Sunday,

and we express our joy and grati-

tude for our wonderful heritage of

Moravian music!

The Calvary Band Trio will

begin our worship with the pre-

service prelude (thank you, mem-

bers of the Trio!). For the organ

prelude, Mary Louise Kapp

Peeples will play “Her Children

Rise Up and Call Her Blessed,”

composed by Winston-Salem mu-

sician and composer Margaret

Vardell Sandresky (b. 1921).

For the opening hymn, we will

sing the familiar Moravian hymn,

“Christian Hearts, in Love

United.” Pastor Lane will lead us

as we pray together a liturgy writ-

ten for Mother’s Day.

this Fifth Sunday in the Easter season,

“Living Stones.”

For the postlude, Mary Louise will

play a piece composed by her husband,

Wade Peeples: “Fantasy on ‘Sing Halle-

lujah, Praise the Lord.’” This triumphant

piece was composed for the 250th Anni-

versary of Bethania Moravian Church in

2009. You will not want to miss hearing

this piece!
