Weather

Please be aware that weather conditions over the next couple of days will likely be extreme enough for rehearsal to be cancelled Wednesday night.  I will call people on Wednesday with the final decision.  Our anthem for Sunday is Psalm 139, which should work fine without a Wednesday rehearsal if it comes to that.

Also, please note that the church office will be closed tomorrow due to weather.

Only A Baby Came--parts

Lost in the Night--accompaniment

Tell It On the Mountain--alto line

for Melanie/Jamie.

Yes, you do have to look at my sideways leg the whole time.

Proposition

I'll be bringing this up at rehearsal tomorrow night, but wanted to post it on here first to give you a chance to think about it first.

If I were to videotape myself playing/singing each voice part separately for new pieces, and then post those videos on YouTube, would you utilize that resource to practice on your own outside of regular rehearsals?  Ponder this, and we'll discuss tomorrow night.

Wanted: Altos!

With Melanie's departure to college, we're left a little thin in the alto section.  I plan on making a couple of announcements during services, as well as having written a blurb for the August newsletter, but if any of you could help out with the alto search, it would be much appreciated.  I'm not totally sure who within the church would be interested/able to help out, but it doesn't hurt to ask around a bit.  I do have Plans B and C if we can't find at least one new alto, but obviously this plan would be preferable.
