Precious Stones - Songs of Sacraments was born of the quest to express love for our creator, reflect God's love for us, and write new and vital music for worship.
These songs:

Windows - Songs of Faith is a collection of original songs recorded during COVID which celebrates the Liturgical Year from Advent, Christmas, Trinity, Palm Sunday, Love, War, and Rising Above. Arranged and produced by Mark Shilansky. This album is dedicated to the ministry of the Rev. Patricia E. Henking (October 8, 1954 - August 18, 2022), and celebrates Faith Episcopal Church (1977 - January 22, 2023).
-
The Window on the cover of the CD is a picture of the glass sculpture which hung behind the altar of Faith Episcopal Church for many years. It was designed by the Rev. Patricia E. Henking and Miller Jamrog and became a symbol of the church. I wrote the song, WINDOWS, to explain this sculpture.
-
The cross of Jesus is empty yet represents an anchor for us in time and space, with a flame of the Holy Spirit at the top.
-
The date 1977 denotes when the church was established, and the five red geometric shapes represent the five wounds of Jesus when he was crucified.
-
The swimming fish represent the earliest symbols of the Christian faith, the blue water symbolizes the Merrimack River, and the holy living water of God.
-
We are Windows and we spread God’s holy radiant Light.
Peace – Songs of Joy and Love is an original collection of words and music written in a lovely and devotional style by Nancy with vocals and piano by Steven McConnell, beautiful string parts by Bobby Chase, and the production skills of Jon Chase Productions.
The song- It’s all about making peace -was written in celebration of the ministry of The Rev. Patricia E. Henking and has a catchy beat. The words speak of being a peacemaker, the end of war and violence, and finding that still small voice within our own hearts of God’s own peace.
Three songs are inspired by Native American spirituality and the work of retired Episcopal Bishop of Alaska, Rt. Rev. Steven Charleston, elder in the Choctaw community.
The theologian, Howard Thurman, Native American spirituality, selections from the Episcopal prayerbook, and words of Jesus have inspired Nancy to write calm, contemplative, and serene songs for finding peace. Blessings.
