[Choir] Great news! and request

[Stephen Finner]

I had an exchange with Donia about the possibility of a music committee.
The two of us should talk and maybe again with her. She has found someone
for the committee on committees but I am going to attend"representative" of
the denominational resources Group. Which if you haven't heard of it make
sense because five of us gathered and created it today ��
More to follow. In any case I would like the link.
Thanks.
