Concerning the Spiritual in Art

Trinity United Church, Collingwood

Ever heard someone talk about a painting and thought “I wish I could look at art like that!”  Ever felt as though looking at art—or making it—deepens your sense of the Holy Spirit?

Or don’t see how it connects with your faith? Come, look, listen, ask questions.

• Illustrated talk by John Franklin of Imago, with a seeing exercise based on a traditional Christian meditation process

• Interview with local visual artist Sue A. Miller

• Q & A session and informal discussion over light refreshments

• Free admission

From our speaker: Our culture is witnessing a turn toward, a longing for, the transcendent. This is so among religious and non-religious alike. We are inclined toward those experiences

that enable us to open new vistas, capture glimpses of beauty, see beyond appearances, and somehow escape a flattened world. Visual art is one of the ways we are able to walk this path.

We will explore how visual art will speak to the deep human longing for the transcendent.

Christmas Cantata, entitled “And Glory Shone Around”

was held on Sunday, December 24th, 2017

The Trinity senior choir was augmented by voices from within the church, and beyond, to present this year’s cantata, entitled “And Glory Shone Around”.

It featured narrative sections between each musical number.  There were a lot of familiar Christmas melodies that are woven into each movement that resonated with the congregation.  The service also featured a brass ensemble (which included some Trinity talent along with players from nearby communities) accompanying the well loved Christmas Carols with which we have grown to love and are so inextricably linked to the season.

I heard it recently said, “no one does the Christmas Service like Trinity United”.
