Choir

next president to go in office. However, the choir was off tune at certain point of praise and worship. It seems like the worship part was never going to end. I keep looking at my phone to see when the actual service was going to start. Within half hour more members were joining the choir. However, the pianist and percussion were out playing the choir, but the pianist was dancing and play the piano at the same time. At certain parts of the worship the choir was singing old traditional, for…

years, I received various opportunities to serve my community through my passions in singing and service. Since the age of nine, I have been a member of my church’s (Gaboan Baptist) youth choir, where I am able to express my passion for singing and strengthen my religious faith. As I member of my youth choir, I worked to organize charity outings such as singing and praying for the homeless at Pacific Garden Mission. As we performed, I loved seeing the smiles that light upon the faces of…

“You let the fire go out (Golding 70).” This repeated statement from Ralph in Lord of the Flies shows that not only did the fire serve the practical purpose of helping them get saved, but it represented the hope of all the people on the island. The fire is just one example of symbolism in the book. Many things, including the conch shell and the characters themselves, can be considered symbols. The conch shell is important for the boys on the island, it is used to call everybody together for…

nonfiction. Her books largely address children. However, she has written a book for teens and young adults, called “My Own True Name”, as well as, a book for educators, called “Zing”. Three of her poems, “Suspense”, “One Blue Door”, and “Twilight Choir”, occur during and after a rain; and will show how her use of diction entertains and speaks to children. The titles of these poems do not elude to the theme of the poems when examined only for the purpose of attempting to interpret the title.…

Language of Sound Now many of you have heard of the same old “My journey with literacy began” kind of crap. Most of us can’t even remember where it began. We all have learned the same basic amount of literacy in our life. In cases such as mine, I have not only taken it upon myself to learn the basics of literacy. But those of music as well. I guess you can say I’ve become a sort of “treble” maker in my life with musical literacy. My cliché journey all started when I was in middle…

The trophies of MFMS athletes in 2018 shows the pride that every athlete has brought to the school and shows that we are a strong school that works together. Just last year the 7th grade won district champs for both A and B team basketball.

The school has gained trophies from 1999 to this day, and so many that we can’t even count and the trophies aren’t what matter, it is…

Abbot Suger of Saint Denis, inspired by what he though were the writings of Saint Denis, designed and built a choir filled with radiance. Believing that light was the presence of Divine Spirit, Suger’s new choir was filled with light. Saint Denis Abbey’s newly designed choir would herald a revolution in architecture which would ripple throughout the culture of Christendom. The Italians would call the style Gothic. Gothic, meant as a slight, was so named to suggest that the culture of Christendom…
