Creative Challenge 245
This is my first time at the challenge, so here goes. One of my favourite compositions of late is “The Beatitudes” by Estonian composer Arvo Pärt. I find that it causes me to pause, realise, and give thanks for my blessings in life. I had a difficult time choosing which choral performance to include in this post, and ended up with, in my humble opinion, one of the best choirs of Christendom, King’s College Choir of Cambridge University. The art work is a out of context, as it’s Dali’s Last Supper—whereas it should have been Jesus with his disciples and the crowd as he delivered the Beatitudes in his Sermon on the Mount. Hope Pärt’s music causes you to pause as you give it a listen.

(in one of my former "lives" I was an Episcopal Church administrator) :)
thank you for joining in
Here in Canada we Lutherans have full communion with Anglicans, and I've had the privilege of presiding at many Anglican services in a variety of settings. Thanks for your comment.
we have had supply clergy from the Lutheran church preside at our services when the priest was away :)
