PRAYER FOR TODAY (Trinity Sunday) May 31, 2026
Holy One, whose fingers sculpted sun and moon; Holy Spirit, who brooded over the waters of creation; How Word, who lives in us; may we share in your grace, love and communion, so that we may live in your likeness; for you live in unity and diversity, one God, now and for ever. Amen.. Amen.

We are delighted to welcome Kirk Adsett to St. James Cathedral on Tuesday at 1.00 p.m. Kirk is the Director of Music at St. Clement's Anglican Church, Toronto.

Kirkland Adsett was born in Fergus Ontario.
Formal music studies saw him attending Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario and Westminster Choir College in Princeton, New Jersey where he earned an Honours Bachelor of Music and a Master of Music degree, respectively.

In addition to choral conducting, organ-playing and composition, improvisation has always greatly interested Kirk. Master-classes and private studies in improvisation have offered opportunities to study with Olivier Latry, Naji Hakim, Madame Jacquet-Langlais (France) and Otto Krämer (Germany).

Kirk's compositions are published exclusively with Cypress Choral Music.

Kirk has served as Director of Music and Organist at Anglican/Episcopal parishes in Salem, NJ, Ottawa, ON, Vancouver BC, and more recently at St. Clement's Church in Toronto.
