Oct. 19, a capacity crowd of 250 filled the First Congregational Church - United Church of Christ in Owosso as the chapter celebrated the International Year of the Organ.  Jeremy David Tarrant, organist and choirmaster at the Cathedral Church of St. Paul (Episcopal) in Detroit, performed on the church's 1958 Kilgen organ.  Included, along with standard repertoire, was Bernard Wayne Sander's Ornament of Grace, performed by Mr. Tarrant and violinist Myra Drean.  A free-w ill offering of over $1,000 was shared by the chapter and the church's organ fund.  A new member was recruited and a prodigal member renewed her membership.  The concert will air on local public access television.
