Farewell, Lee
St. John's energetic and talented
Minister of Music, Lee Warren Rutan, begins a new position in sunny Florida in May. Parishioners and friends honored Lee at a going-away party and wished him well in his new home and church.
Lee blessed St. John's Church for over 16 years with beautiful organ and piano music at Sunday's services. Please remember Lee in your prayers.

The gift of music
I wish to see all arts, principally music, in the service of Him who gave and created them.
Music is a fair and glorious gift from God. I would not forego my humble share of music. Singers are never sorrowful, but are merry, and they smile through their troubles in song.
Music makes people kinder, gentler, more staid and reasonable. I am persuaded that after theology, music is the only art capable of affording peace and joy of heart … the devil flees before the sound of music almost as much as before the Word of God. —Martin Luther
