The Central
Virginia chapter of the Leadership Program for Musicians (LPM) is
currently accepting registrations for the 2013-2014 session beginning
September 13-14 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. The organization is sponsored
by The Episcopal Church and The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
Students will meet
on one Friday night and all day Saturday monthly for five months
(September, October, November, January, and February). Courses offered
this year are Conducting, Liturgy and Worship, Philosophy of Church
Music, and Teaching New Music. In addition, registered students attend a
one-day March workshop at no cost. At the completion of the two year
program, students are awarded a Certificate of Church Music from the
National Leadership Program for Musicians organization.
