Rehearsals have been roughly every other week.  We will not rehearse on Feb. 1 due to the Super Bowl or on Feb. 15 due to the Winter Retreat.  SOOOOO February 8 is an important rehearsal!  We still have openings in the handbell choir and are desperate for some low male voices!  Come join us.  invite friends!

 

We have some great songs we are working on and I’d love to schedule them.   Are you availble on Sunday, February 22 or March 1?  let me know ASAP.

 

Mark your calendars for roughly June 20-28.  We are going to combine Music and Mission.  Details are in the works but I see Florida on the horizon!  Singers, Ringers and Workers, plan to attend! We’ll work with our hands, our hearts and our voices!
