Rise up, my love, my fair one!

Not often does one get the opportunity to explore the Book of Song of Songs in its entirety and I am grateful for Leaside United Church’s determination to explore this evocative and challenging, yet such beautiful texts. It was lovely to see the community come together to experience this Choral Evensong service. Many hands were hard at work in preparation for this service and I couldn’t have been more thankful. “Rise up, my love, my fair one.”

With many thanks,

Matthew Boutda | Director of Music Leaside United Church
