Institution of Our Rector
- Emmanuel Church is proud to announce that we celebrated the institution of our twelfth rector, the Rev. Pamela L. Werntz. For those who missed the
glorious service on March 7, the Rt. Rev. Thomas M. Shaw, SSJE, presided as many clergy joined Pam's friends, family and parishioners in a celebration of our mutual ministry. Thank you to all who helped
provide food, flowers, and time to make this important moment so much
fun. It was a day to remember and a day full of much promise for our
congregation. Our About page has a brief description of Pam's
background, which was posted when she first arrived here in the Spring
of 2008 and makes for nostalgic reading. Stay posted for more
information about the discernment process and Pam's call to be our rector.

We rejoice in the election of Ryan Turner as our Music Director!
- The result of a two-year search for Music Director of Emmanuel Church and Artistic Director of Emmanuel Music was announced March 2. In September Ryan will succeed our reknown interim John Harbison and our beloved, late director Craig Smith. As a long-time member of Emmanuel Music and tenor in our choir, Ryan, and his wife, soprano Susan Consoli, are known to many of us. For more details please see Emmanuel Music's announcement, Jeremy Eichler's announcement in the Globe, and David Weininger's article about Ryan's selections for the upcoming season.
