That is a step in the right direction toward our being more whole again.  I also want to say that I have, in my over 30 years in our church, seen and heard MANY versions of O, Holy Night.  Last night's rendering was the absolute best--the arrangement of the song, Verdis' lead vocal, and the glorious sound of the choir made it a tour de force.  Thank you all for that lovely surprise.  Made my evening.  Paula
