The
Central Virginia chapter of the Leadership Program for Musicians (LPM)
is currently accepting registrations for the 2012-2013 session beginning
September 14-15 at the Church of the Holy Comforter in Richmond. LPM is
a continuing education program in church music, worship, and liturgy,
and is open to people of all denominations although sponsorship is
provided by the Episcopal Church and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America.
Students
will meet monthly for five months on one Friday night and all day
Saturday to complete courses offered this year on Leading Congregational
Song, Resources for an Effective Music Ministry, Philosophy, and
Hymnody of the Christian Church. In addition, registered students attend
the March workshop for free. At the completion of the two year program,
students receive a Certificate of Church Music from the National
Leadership Program for Musicians organization.
Complete details of the program can be found on our website www.lpm-va.org or by contacting our Coordinator, Nellwyn Beamon, at (757) 423-6715 (day) or emailing nbeamon@ascension-norfolk.org AND nadezhda@quixnet.net.
A non-refundable deposit of $100 will hold your space in this year's
class. Classes are $200 each or $600 for all four. Late registrations
received after September 1 add $50.
