<div>Thank you for your time and energy last night! Music is a
balm in many ways, and I felt it last night.</div>

<div>You may already have read Joan's special email to all, but
if not, please know that there will be just one service, at
10:00 am, on Sunday - NOT two services at 9 and 11. UCM is
adopting recommendations from the Unitarian Universalist
Association that all <span><strong style="font-size:14px;font-style:italic">church gatherings
of more than 25 people be immediately suspended</strong>,
so on Sunday there will be no congregation. But there <u>will</u>
be a kind of worship service that'll be transmitted
(somehow!), and imagine this: there is "room" for the choir!</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>The service is still being
created, so I can't be very specific about what your role
would be, or exactly what will be in the service, but for
sure we could sing Donia's piece "Rising," and perhaps a
hymn or two. It would likely be just Joan, Eliza, possibly
one or two other helpers for recording purposes, you all,
and me!</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>Please let me know if you
are willing to attend and sing. To recap: you would come at
9:15 to rehearse. The service would begin at 10:00, and
probably NOT last as long as an hour. <u>There will not be
other people coming to the service.</u></span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span><u>Please "reply all"</u>
so that we can assess whether the choir will have a role in
this Sunday's service. What happens AFTER this Sunday is not
known at this time.</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>Oh, I guess unfortunately I
<b>do</b> know something of what's not going to happen after
this Sunday: we will <b>not</b> be able to hold Music
Sunday on April 5.</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>These are uniquely tough
times. Let's stay together as best we can.</span></div>
