Testimonials

"As I entered the church where leaders from congregations in southern Maryland had gathered, I heard something we can't ever get enough of—joyful singing! And throughout the day, the singing continued with growing confidence, as Bill Roberts and Ellen Johnston led us in worship and workshops. It was a transformative moment for our diocese. I commend the Music, Liturgy, and the Arts to all churches and diocese that long to hear their people sing."

- The Rt. Rev. Dr. Mariann Edgar Budde, Episcopal Bishop of Washington
