International Seafarers Ministry The ports of Galveston and Houston comprise one of the busiest shipping centers in the world. Ships loaded with goods are staffed by men and women from all over the world, often spending months away from home. Many have never heard the Gospel of Christ. St. Philip supports this ministry, which seeks to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ through serving these sailors in acts of compassion and service. |

A group founded by Matthew Dirst, our own renowned Organist, that specializes in the Baroque chamber repertoire and dramatic works from this era. Their performances of early operas especially, presented in collaboration with the Moores School of Music Collegium Musicum and the Moores Opera Center, have attracted considerable attention in the local press. Recent productions include Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, John Blow's Venus and Adonis, Jacopo Peri's Euridice, Handel's Acis and Galatea, and Alessandro Scarlatti's Il Primo Omicidio. Their dramatization of Handel's first oratorio, Il Trionfo del Tempo e della Verità, in spring 2002 was the American première of this neglected work. (www.arslyricahouston.org)
