This is the first service held under a tent on St. Mark’s front lawn. It’s also the first Eucharistic service since the COVID-19 pandemic shut down inside services in March 2020.

There were major problems with the celebrant’s portable, wireless mic cutting out.I tried various editing and mixing tactics but was unable to completely eliminate the dropouts.

• Audio extracts from the Lutheran Morning Prayer Service:
St. Mark’s is fortunate to have as parishioner Retired Lutheran Pastor Bruce Steinway. He makes it poossible for us to have a once monthly Lutheran service for parishioners and viewers who may be Lutheran. He officiated at his first  outdoor Drive-In Lutheran Morning Prayer Service for the 7th Sunday of Easter. (Until today, his outdoor services were cancelled by rain.) Parishioner Harry Evangeliou was the reader and Madison Day was the videographer. Parishioner David Doiron setup the wireless microphones and recorded the audio of the service. He also downloaded the Facebook Live video and prepared it for viewing by people not having access to Facebook. Links to the recorded extracts:
