Nov. 14.  Craig Smith, our music director and founder of Emmanuel Music, died.  Richard Dyer wrote an obituary for Emmanuel Music.

Piano-collector Hu Youyi purchased our Casavant organ and shipped it to the Organ Art Center on Gulangyu Island, Fujian Province, China, where it was restored by Rieger Orgelbau and installed in a concert hall (above) in 2017. See also the record for Opus 700 in the Pipe Organ Database.

We joined with Boston Jewish Spirit to form a programmatic partnership called the Emmanuel Center in order to promote mutual engagement of our congregations and interfaith initiatives in Boston.
