Coffee House Still Going Strong after Nine Years

By CASPAR EWIG
SCHUYLER LAKE

Do you have a musical, comedic or other talent that you would like to share?

Every fourth Saturday of the month from 7-9 p.m.—including this coming Saturday—the “Coffee House” that springs up at the Schuyler Lake United Methodist Church at 128 Church Street holds an open mic night. And every fourth Saturday the little church comes alive with artists performing works of varying genres (and some, like this writer, of varying talents) entertaining an enthusiastic assemblage.

And it helps, of course, that Pastor Sharon Rankins-Burd is an accomplished pianist and guitar player who can provide accompaniment or back-up when needed.

The monthly event, hosted by Timothy Peters, was launched in December 2015 and has been sailing along continuously, except for the pandemic interruption.
