PRAYER OF THE FAITHFUL\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>DEPARTED<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

FOR NOVEMBER<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Out of the depths I cry to you O Lord, Lord, hear my voice!<\/p>\n

O let your ears be attentive to the voice of my pleading.<\/p>\n

If you, O Lord should mark our guilt, Lord who would survive?<\/p>\n

But with you is found forgiveness; for this we revere you.<\/p>\n

My soul is waiting for the Lord. I count on His word.<\/p>\n

My soul is longing for the Lord more than the watchman for daybreak.<\/p>\n

(Let the watchman count on daybreak and Israel on the Lord).<\/p>\n

Because, with the Lord there is mercy and fullness of redemption.<\/p>\n

Israel indeed He will redeem for all its iniquity.<\/p>\n

v\u2013 Eternal rest grant to them O Lord<\/p>\n

r \u2013 And let perpetual light shine upon them<\/p>\n

v \u2013 May they rest in peace<\/p>\n

r \u2013 Amen<\/p>\n

v \u2013 O Lord, hear my prayer<\/p>\n

r \u2013 And let my cry come to you.<\/p>\n

Let us pray, O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful,<\/p>\n

grant to the souls of your servants departed the remission of all their sins,<\/p>\n

that through our fervent prayer they may obtain that pardon<\/p>\n

which they have always desired; who live and reign forever and ever.<\/p>\n

Amen<\/p>\n

Do you want to be part of the largest Virtual Christmas Carol event?<\/h3>\n

2020 has been a challenging\u00a0year for everyone. We are all facing a long winter, one where we will not be able to gather to celebrate one of the most favourite times of the year, yes our beloved Christmas. Santa this year is going to have to practice social distancing \u2013 staying away from all of us as much as he can to ensure that on his journey around the world he doesn\u2019t become a super spreader of the Corona virus.<\/p>\n

But what about our Carol Services and Carol Concerts? Are we going to loose them this year. Surely Christmas can\u2019t happen with out the sounds of Jingle Bells and Deck the Halls? The reality is for 2020 we are going to have to park these events, hopefully we will be able to celebrate them in person again in 2021, right now it is simply too dangerous to bring large groups of people together.<\/p>\n

With this in mind\u00a0I am inviting you to come along and be part of the biggest Virtual Choir event that has ever happened. A Virtual Carol Event, 14 songs, many of which are new arrangements of traditional songs are ready for your vocal skills. Myself and the amazingly talented people I record with here in Ireland have been preparing tracks for you all to sing along to. All you need to do for now is<\/p>\n

Register to take part<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Registration closes at 11pm on 6th November. It doesn\u2019t matter where in the world you are it will close at 11pm your time. Once we have gathered who is interested we will look at dividing up the songs between those who are signed up (I am not sure everyone will be up for doing 18 songs, but if you are you are welcome to).<\/p>\n

When registration closes, you will be sent instructions to download the learning and recording tracks along with sheet music and strict instructions too follow.<\/p>\n

Then in your own time, you record your vocal parts and once you have them all done and are happy with how you look and sound, send them to us via WeTransfer.com. Don\u2019t worry all details will be included in your email and it can all be done from your phone.<\/p>\n

Recordings need to be submitted by 11pm November 20th (again your local time).<\/p>\n

Once all files have been received here by me, we will begin to make the magic happen. We will piece together all the recordings and make you sound like a choir.<\/p>\n

For enquiries and further information please contact Sinead on +353 (0)87\u00a0954 0091\u202c or by email\u00a0\u00a0info@iancallanan.com<\/a><\/p>\n

The event will be broadcast on 20th December (Times and method to be announced.)<\/p>\n

One final thing \u2013 make sure to spread the word about this and let all your singing friends and\/or\u00a0choir members\u00a0know about it. We want as many singers as possible to take part.<\/p>\n
