 More details as we know them.

Sherri is making song sheets and bringing her keyboard.

Last night we made this list of songs:

1. All God's Critters Got  a Place...
2. Kyrie
3. Benedictus
4. Spirit of Life-  # 123 from hymnal.  I will bring copies so we don't have to lug heavy books. 

1. Oklahoma
2. Oh What  A Beautiful Morning

Maybe others such as

76 Trombones

Do Re Mi

Depending on what lyric sheets Sherri makes up and of course , how Bob is feeling.    As Paula mentioned,  be prepared to see a very ill man....

This is such meaningful work we are doing.

Thank you everybody.

Choir Reminders and a question

Hi  Everyone

Hey Jay,  did you get this?

We are planning to sing Wake Up on Nov 8.  We have just one more rehearsal before then.   If anyone wants to  and has time to do extra rehearsals, let me know.    If we don't feel ready we can substitute something else- such as the duet Susan and Sara were playing with a few weeks ago from the green hymnal.

We are planning to sing  Kyrie Nov 15.  That's two more rehearsals away.    Same caveat as above although I m not sure what else we  can substitute.

No rehearsal November 23 
 I am visiting my daughter in Seattle.  
Question:  do people want to meet  without me and  work on songs for the soiree with Paula that night?
