NEW HYMNALS FOR SCR St. Clement of Rome has chosen Ritual Song as our new hymnal. This hard covered hymnal will include the full texts of the readings for each Sunday and feast day of the three-year Lectionary cycle as well as service music and psalmody and an equal balance of contemporary and traditional hymns. It will also provide a wide selection of world music and a diversity of languages for multilingual worship. The publisher of Ritual Song is GIA the same publisher that has published the Gather hymnal, the resource we have been using for the past 20 years here at SCR. So, many of the hymns and songs you will know and recognize. However, many new songs will be available for us to learn as well. We would like to invite you to consider purchasing one or more hymnals. You can donate a hymnal and dedicate it to the memory of a departed loved one or to simply honor your family name. A memorial plate will be attached to the inside front cover of the hymnal creating a lasting memory for years to come. The cost of each Ritual Song hymnal is $18.00.
