Ahhhhellipthe three beloved months we call sum-merrdquo Somehow the pace of life seems to slow ndash the days are longer we linger a little more and of course look
forward to the summer tradition ndash the ldquoVrdquo word vacation Vacation brings us a sense of renewal and a refreshing break from the hus-tle of daily life Maybe we could embark on a great adventure or to visit with loved ones we do not see often Regardless where the vaca-tion takes us we experience new places new opportunities and come home with memories that last a lifetime
For some a true vacation may not be possi-ble Sometimes physical financial or other demands in our lives prevent some from this experience This is where music becomes a
powerful agent Music communicates far-off places deeply personal emotions or can bring back fond memories of onersquos past Jubilate has the privilege every time we perform to take a listener on a ldquomini-vacationrdquo and re-lieve the pressure of daily life even if just for a short period We could touch someone every time we sing ndash no matter how many or how few people we serve in a given performance
With this note ndash I wish everybody a wonderful summer Enjoy the long days and take time for vacation in whatever form that comes for you this summer
Singing With Jubilate By Artistic Director Dr J Arturo Gonzalez
Our summer break is here time to rest
As we take a few weeks off from our weekly rehearsal and the activities of the choir I was intrigued by the concept of resting a concept that for
some of us has become a little strange
Resting Who does that There is so much to do all the time that sometimes I even feel that not even my brain completely shuts off when I take a break However the good Lord took one day to rest after He finished His creative labor during creation I really donrsquot believe that the Almighty needs rest nonetheless He did take a break In that way He commanded us to rest
As important as ldquothou shall not killrdquo or ldquohonor your parentsrdquo God says to us ldquoRest Take a breakrdquo So what did God intend with the idea of resting Should we sit in front of the TV and watch a House of Cards marathon Get in a hammock in the back yard and just watch the grass grow for a whole day Sounds good but not quite In the book Judaism 101 the author says ldquoBy resting on the seventh day and sanc-tifying it we remember and acknowledge that
God is the creator of heaven and earth and all living things We also emulate the divine ex-ample by refraining from work on the seventh day as God did If Gods work can be set-aside for a day of rest how can we believe that our own work is too important to set aside tempo-rarilyrdquo
So this is my advice or probably what I am planning to do Irsquom going to remember how blessed I am by being a part of this ministry called Jubilate One of the audience members at a recent concert said to me Itrsquos a miracle you folks are together And yes it is a miracle and we need to recognize that
Also I am not going to think about plans dreams ideas or things I want to accomplish with Jubilate or with me as a professional I am going to let God operate during this time and just see what happens Apparently even after He rested on the eighth day things kept going the world didnrsquot end So I know our world is not going to end and I believe we will come back with new ideas new dreams and new objectives to reach with the full under-standing and awe of the miracle that Jubilate represents We have the assurance that we are Godrsquos creation and believe me God takes care of his creation

Jubilate took a weekend to travel to Rocky Mountain Evangelical Free Church in Black Hawk CO to provide inspirational music to a small congregation of believers at their Sunday service On Saturday Jubilate enjoyed a wonderful afternoon at the Ameristar Casino gathering to celebrate two wedding anniversaries one of 50 years and the other of 51 years Cheering was also heard while the Bel-mont Stakes horserace was run Our hosts Grandin and his very talented wife Darlene provided some delicious snack and beverages while we celebrated
The highlight of the past year was to join two other choirs and the Flatirons Orchestra to perform the Brahms Requiem We first per-formed this work in Longmont at the United Church of Christ A very nice audience of about 200 attended The very next day we gath-ered to perform at the Arvada Methodist Church Here was standing room only with over 500 in the audience What a grand work Dr Gonzalez toiled tirelessly with the orchestra and choir to make this a work of perfection Each of the perfor-mances was a work of art The audience felt it as well as the choir You may hear a part of the performance here Scroll to the middle of the home page and click on the link presented Accolades go to the choir and orchestra for their dedication and outstanding work
As you know our mission is to take music to those who love and need it On two of many occasions we have visited the Ar-nold Sunday School held in the Community House at Chautau-qua State Park Another pictured on the right is at Good Shep-herd Presbyterian Church in Northglenn where we took part in their weekly Sunday church service
