On Saturday, February 7, from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., Music that Makes Community will be offering a One-Day workshop at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Raleigh, North Carolina, sponsored by Association of Lutheran Church Musicians. Three experienced MMC facilitators will offer a lively day of singing, learning, and community building. No special talents required - just a love of music and fellowship. Singers of all backgrounds, ages, and experience levels are warmly welcomed to participate!

Join us for a renewing day of building community through singing, learning, and fellowship. During our time together we’ll: 

- Explore a practice of paperless (oral tradition) singing leadership grounded in a spirit of welcome and generosity;
- Engage models of teaching and leading that welcome our bodies, hearts, and minds;
- Experience music reflective of the growing diversity of our communities and celebrating our rich spiritual and liturgical traditions;
- Build community and strengthen relationships through singing.

Each person will leave with new music to share, as well as experiences of learning and teaching songs applicable to their context. Choir directors, clergy, cantors, lay leaders, and all who love to sing are warmly welcomed. 

We are delighted to offer many registration tiers.  Please register before December 16, 2025 for the best rate!
