Blank music-team rota - August to October 2019

This is a printable music-team roster for August to October 2019. It has:

• One row for each Sunday in this period, labelled with the corresponding feast from the Irish liturgical calendar, and notes about other observances that day or in the coming week.

• Extra rows for any non-Sunday feast days when churches in Ireland are likely to have music - none of these in 2019).
  (Check this against your own country's liturgical calendar, to remove Irish-specific feasts, and add your own.)

• Two columns with the dates and names of the feast or liturgical calendar day.

• Three columns for your use.  These are labelled Co-ordinator, Musician(s), Audio-visual.  Change them to suit your local needs (eg you may need Choir Cantor, Animator, Organist, Worship Leader, etc)

Things to note in this time period

Liturgically this is very much Ordinary Time:  These three months include very few feast days - and none of them are on Sundays.   But it does include

• Creation Time (September) 
• Northern hemisphere - the start of the school year 
• Northern hemisphere - Harvest Festival (observed in roughly September / October )
• Day for Life in Ireland

Why this three month period

Planning in these three month periods matches both the liturgical and secular seasons :

• Feb - Mar - April (includes Lent and Easter)
• May - Jun - Jul (spring / summer in Europe, winter in the southern hemisphere)
• Aug - Sept - Oct (Back-to-school = start of a new year in Europe)
• Nov - Dec - Jan (New Year and summer-holidays in the south, people get together in late January to plan for the rest of the year).

If this combination doesn't suit your church, then it may be better to use the blank music roster template.

The next version, for November - January will be available in mid October 2019.  Please leave a message in the Comments section near the bottom of the page if you have requests about what it should include.
