NEXT CANDIDATE FOR CATHEDRAL MUSIC POSITION
Please join friends from the congregation and the Portland community on Thursday, March 11, at 7 pm in the Cathedral, to hear our next candidate for Canon for Cathedral Music, Eric Milnes.
Eric, who has conducted Trinity Consort programs in recent years, will present a thirty-minute program of his own selections (organ works by Bach, César Franck, and Max Reger), followed by everyone gathering in the Chancel to sing two hymns to his accompaniments and improvised introductions. He'll have a little advance notice of the first hymn, but none for the second, allowing us to watch and hear him thinking and playing -- on-the-spot! This public test of an organist's skill dates from traditions over three hundred years old, but is seldom experienced today.
We’ve had large turnouts for these auditions, and The Oregonian's music critic, David Stabler, is following and reporting on this search. Join us for the fun! (And mark your calendars as well for the final candidate, here on March 18.)
SKY OF MERCY: A BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN EUCHARIST
Saturday, March 13, 5 p.m., Trinity Episcopal Cathedral
Trinity will hold a Lenten Eucharist set to the music of The Boss. The service will feature an assortment of instruments and intergenerational musicians leading the service in Springsteen's songs of struggle, redemption, courage and hope.
The offering will go to the Trinity Food Pantry, which served nearly 20,000 people last year. The service will be held in the Cathedral. This is a free event, with no need to purchase tickets. Please be sure to arrive at least a half hour early to ensure a seat. For additional information, please contact Pam Knepper, Trinity's Communication Coordinator at 503-478-1201 or pamk@trinity-episcopal.org.

Three Clergy Compare Perspectives on Religious Ethics
Tuesday, March 16, 7-8:30 pm; Pollin Chapel, Temple Beth Israel, 1972 NW Flanders Street; Free
Following up on last year’s exciting presentation, our panel of neighboring religious leaders returns to discuss their varying religion’s approach to ethics. Join Trinity’s Dean The Very Rev. Dr. William Lupfer (pictured left), Senior Rabbi Michael Cahana (Temple Beth Israel) and The Rev. George Wolf (St. Mary’s Cathedral) for an enlightening discussion. How do Jewish, Catholic and Episcopalian traditions help their people arrive at moral decisions to ethical problems? Can we be certain of making the right choice? Your questions will be part of the conversation. Please let Temple Beth Israel know you are attending. Email Elana or call the Temple at 503-222-1069 to sign-up.
