Thanks to Jae for sending the update that Ministry had a private event and “opens next week.” Ed. Note: Not sure if that means later this week or next week. At any rate it’s soon! Their website lists staff positions open and says:

“At The Ministry, we love all things coffee, food, and wine.

It is the heart and soul of what we do. Coffee is our energy, food is our motivator, and wine is our joy. We believe in basking in the moments that are meant to be unrushed. We seek to provide an inviting space that encourages conversations, engagement, and community.

Founded by sister team Elisa and Lourdes (Lulu) Bennaton, The Ministry derives its inspiration from their roots in Honduras and Guatemala and international experiences. Excited to share their heritage through their passion of coffee and wine, Elisa wanted to create a place that celebrates and experiments with both.

We believe in cultivating connections: encouraging creativity, genuinely getting to know our patrons, nurturing our team, and collaborating with local partners.

We believe that life revolves around connections and people. At The Ministry we want to celebrate community, diversity and individuality within a space that is designed to celebrate life through great coffee, food and wine. Whether you want to plug away and be productive, wind down at the end of the day, reconnect with friends, or stop by for a workshop, we are here for you.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
