  • Concentus Women’s Chorus

In these cold, dormant days of winter, Concentus Women’s Chorus celebrates “The Elements” of our humanity that bring us together: earth, fire, water, and air. These life forces abide in all of us, regardless of our origins or destinations. Music is a universal language that speaks about them to us all! Under the guest direction of Dr. Eric Rubinstein, we will perform vibrant works by Abbie Betinis, Claude Debussy, Darius Lim, Frank Ticheli and more.

Join us for this exciting winter concert!

Saturday January 24- 3pm First Presbyterian Church Pittsford
General ticket: $20
Student/limited income: $5

All widowed church members and friends are welcome and encouraged to attend. Please RSVP to Deb M. or the church office at 585-586-5688 by February 11.

  • Volunteer Opportunity with Odyssey of the Mind

It’s Odyssey of the Mind season! Odyssey of the Mind (OM) is a creative problem-solving competition that challenges students to think critically, collaborate, and use their imagination. Our area has a strong OM community, but each team must secure a volunteer judge—often difficult for families who don’t know many people locally. Serving as a judge is a rewarding way to support students, and no prior OM experience is required. The time commitment includes tournament day on March 7, along with a brief training (January 31 morning or February 5 and 12 evenings). If this sounds like something you’d enjoy or would like more information about, please contact Ellen H.
