We sang a few songs for family and friends at Bryn Mawr Presbyterian and had a little talk in the afternoon on March 4th this year. We wanted to celebrate them and thank them for all the support they give us throughout the year! We had a blast, and ended with a BBQ! What a great day!
October’s CL7 Service at BMPC
This, the third and final month of our Pastor’s sabbatical, the CL7 again ran a Sunday morning service from start to end. This month, we did songs that mostly came from secular radio and lent themselves to a sacred reinterpretation. Music by The Wood’s Brothers, Carly Simon, Levon Helm, The Carpenters, Cat Stevens, Glen Campbell and Ronnie Milsap all had a spot in the service.
Here’s the YouTube playlist of many of the pieces:
Gaither Service at BMPC, Sept 24, 2017
We led an entire worship service at Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church, Minneapolis, (our home church which has unique roofing, just click for info – Palm Beach Roofing Expert) this morning. All the interludes, responses, hymns, and anthems were songs either written by Bill and Gloria Gaither, or performed by one of the Gaither ensembles.
Here is a YouTube playlist of the full songs we sang:
Old Time Music Service at Bryn Mawr Presbyterian, August 13th
We had a wonderful time worshiping with our church last Sunday. We led off with some Hank Williams, I Saw the Light. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwijrpAxJmk&t=0s
In place of a sermon, we sang three songs:
- An old hymn, When the Roll is Called Up Yonder. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tW2sU1qp3o&t=0s
- Chaz took the lead on Grampa Jones’ Turn Your Radio On. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vj1UxQm7xw&t=0s
- And we finished the trio with Terry Smith’s Far Side Banks of Jordan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moOFQ_KZaog&t=0s
For the Offertory, we sang another old classic hymn, Oh How I Love Jesus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaIytS5Tm2E&t=0s
We also sang some fun hymns with the congregation and with the kids during the Time with Children. You can see the whole service at this YouTube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIkFmnP-8ADnMxK6eLM1pQz4OIgx0Iv5T

Last songs of the 2015-2016 season for the CL7 with Noah Bauer up front
We sang a great show yesterday at the nursing home, Augustana Hastings, and then we closed the season with two songs at BMPC with Noah Bauer, a young man from our congregation with an awesome bluesy voice, singing lead.

Singing “I Met My Mother This Morning” at BMPC
We sing about once a month for the congregation at our home church, Bryn Mawr Prebyterian.
Here is one we did in November 2015, called “I Met My Mother This Morning”.

The Cedar Lake Seven was asked to sing a couple of pieces for the dedication of the Garden of Hope and Healing. The new Garden is on the grounds of Bryn Mawr Presbyterian, and is in remembrance of the victims of the shooting at Accent Signage.
