There's a Sing Heavenly Harmony event today, Sunday, April 1, 2012, from 4-6 p.m. in room 108 of the O'Shaughnessy-Frey Library at the University of St. Thomas. Join us to have fun singing and learn some songs by heart.
A few weeks ago, I attended a Music that Makes Community (MMC) workshop in South Minneapolis presented by All Saints Company. There 50-some folks from the Twin Cities metro, Iowa, Wisconsin, Vermont and Oregon gathered to learn more about a movement to include paperless singing in worship. The workshop also prepared lay persons, musicians, and clergy, in the basic leadership tools of this practice.
Having attended this workshop previously, I knew the next step beyond the fundamentals is having a community of practice to hone one's skills. Can you guess where I'm going next? Yep, I'm opening up SHH to any leader who attended MMC to bring songs they're working on to this monthly gathering.
So, come! Come if you'd like to get some kinks out of your voice. Come if you'd like to learn some new songs. Come if you'd like to lead some songs with a grace-filled, singing-loving group.
