A note about the audio quality this week: St. Mark’s Cathedral experienced a power outage shortly before the service this last Sunday, therefore our usual recording and streaming equipment were unusable. A resourceful member of the choir not only managed to record the service on his phone, but stream that live on our YouTube channel as well. Thank you, Greg!
