Greetings to you all!
I am writing to you a day early since I will be busy first thing in the morning tomorrow.
We had a great Session before church this morning, preparing for a Congregational Meeting. Of great interest, was some suggestion of finding persons in our church (or even some who aren't!) who could stand in front to lead the hymns. We have so very many kinds of hymns and some are not familiar. If someone with a strong and confident voice stood in front to lead us, they could help Marge hear us all and help us all learn new hymns. "Sing to the Lord a new song..." (Psalm 96)
