St Stephen’s has a Strong musical tradition with two choral services each Sunday throughout the year (except August when the choir has a well deserved break – but usually sing elsewhere for a number of days). Music is sung from across the centuries, ranging from plainSong dating back hundreds of years right through to contemporary works by composers such as John Tavener and Arvo Pärt, including works written especially for us. less

The year started with bright hope for a promising great year, yet the treat of a deadly virus lingered in our ears. In February, COVID caused Some concern in America as people were being warned of the implications the virus could bring when it came from overseas.
By March, our government told us we needed to stay home as the virus was deadly to all age groups and almost impossible to avoid. Most necessities, like toilet paper and cleaning products, were gone from the shelves of all stores making people worry how fighting this treat would be possible. Throughout the country, several people offered to help neighbors, friends, and family as they self-quarantined and Socially distanced from each, as we were told it was our best defense against the upcoming pandemic.
During quarantine, Some people started riots for an unrelated cause, Black Lives Matter. This movement has an ongoing struggle in our nation as the group battles f... less

When he killed the Mudjokivis,
Of the skin he made him mittens,
Made them with the fur side Inside,
Made them with the skin side outside.
He, to get the warm side Inside,
Put the Inside skin side outside;
He, to get the cold side outside,
Put the warm side fur side Inside.
That's why he put the fur side Inside,
Why he put the skin side outside,
Why he turned them Inside outside less

Marsh flowers by Benjamin Britten sung by us at Nottingham choir course in 1977

Here the Strong mallow strikes her slimy root,
Here the dull night-shade hangs her deadly fruit;
On hills of dust the henbane's faded green,
And pencill'd flower of sickly scent is seen;
Here on its wiry stem, in rigid bloom,
Grows the salt lavender that lacks perfume.
At the wall's base the fiery nettle springs,
With fruit globose and fierce with poiSon'd stings;
In every chink delights the fern to grow,
With glossy leaf and tawny bloom below:
The few dull flowers that o'er the place are spread
Partake the nature of their fenny bed.
These, with our sea-weeds, rolling up and down,
Form the contracted flora of our town. less
