- What: Sing Heavenly Harmony, a.k.a. SHH, in the Library - a contemplative, reflective, meditative singing flash mob. You'll walk away a little clearer and more connected to your heart.
- Where: O'Shaughnessy Room 108, O'Shaughnessy-Frey Library, University of St. Thomas, NW corner of Summit and Cleveland Ave, St. Paul, MN (parking)
- When: late afternoon on Sun, Dec 4, 2011. The room is reserved between 4-6 p.m. SHH may be the first hour or the second, but not both. We'll update this as soon as details with the videographer are finalized. (What's this about a videographer?) UPDATE: SHH will be at 4 p.m.

SHH Updates
Tomorrow afternoon I and others (I hope you!) will be Singing Heavenly Harmony, SHH-ing, in the library. Checkout this post for location details.
We're switching lightbulbs in December. Instead of Dec 11, we are rescheduling to sing earlier, on Dec 4, so SHH doesn't compete with Barbara McAfee's Singing in the Light event (see her Schedule). If you have an opportunity to check it out, Do! It is where SHH was and many other voices are nurtured into their fullness. The December 4th SHH will be at the same bat time, 4-6 p.m., and at the same bat place, the O'Shaughnessy Room (108) of the O'Shaughnessy-Frey Library at the University of St. Thomas.
In 2012, we're setting up permanent lamps for SHH on the first Sunday of the month except when the library's closed. Like Sun, Jan 1, 2012. It's likely SHH will shift to the next open Sunday. Check back here to see where the SHH spotlight will land.
