SUMMARY:A Celebration of Women: Lifting up women composers
DESCRIPTION:Taking place during International Women’s History month\, this event highlights and supports the work of women composers. Although historically marginalized as creators\, this concert hopes to bring to audiences a wide variety of music that spans across hundreds of years\, right to the very beginning of recorded Western music. Professional group Heri et Hodie will sing chant from medieval times. Community choir Musica Sacra will present a portion of a newly commissioned work that premiered just six months ago. Singers from feminist choir MUSE will also present a set. Other special guests from the Greater Cincinnati area will be joining and spotlighting their repertoire by women. \nA freewill offering will benefit Lydia’s House\, working to provide safe housing\, holistic care\, and supportive community\, walking with families from crisis to stability. In 2013 Lydia’s House began as a small residence for women and their children experiencing homelessness\, since that time it has grown to include an affordable housing building\, a second building in May 2022\, and a large shelter expansion in 2024. Learn more at stlydiashouse.org

SUMMARY:Lenten Book Study: Good Inside
DESCRIPTION:Buy your copy on Bookshop.org and support local booksellers.\nThis virtual Lenten book study is for parents and caregivers at all ages and stages. Together we’ll be reading Good Inside by child psychologist Dr. Becky Kennedy\, placing her ideas alongside our Baptismal Covenant. \nWe’ll explore what it means to raise children who are already loved\, worthy\, and held by God. We’ll also reflect on how a compassionate\, relationship-centered approach to parenting resonates with our baptismal promises: to seek Christ in all people\, to respect the dignity of every human being\, and to grow together in love. \nThrough honest conversation and practical reflection\, parents and caregivers will be supported in translating these shared values into everyday family life. We’ll also learn more about giving ourselves grace when we miss the mark with our kids! \nNo theology background required—just curiosity\, openness\, and a desire to learn. Groups may choose to join the Zoom meeting from a common location\, or participate individually from home. \nThis book study gathers on Wednesday evenings from 7-8 pm from February 25 to April 1 and takes place on Zoom. All are welcome. This study is especially geared toward parents and caregivers. \nREGISTER HERE \nQuestions about this event?\nEmail Rev. Olivia Hamilton\, missioner for lifelong formation\, at ohamilton@diosohio.org.
