A Capella, in Four Part Harmony
The service went just fine for all the turnout was small, just three families. But when it was time for the Gloria, Fr. Daniel figured he had some good voices (not mine) and directed us to Hymn 739(?) and suggested we all sing it in four parts, a cappella. It was beautiful!
Afterwards we had a nice little supper, and then the second installment of the Evangelism Class. I've been like much of the class this month... traveling. I missed last week's class due to travel, I'll miss next week's class due to travel (a week of meetings in Salt Lake City), and so it goes for most of the rest of us who aren't home sick. Maybe we'll have to redo this some other month.

Would that I were a fly on the wall for that hymn!

It was heavenly - there's something extra spiritual about singing in ensemble with other voices, a capella. I wish we could perfect it and sing it that way all the time. I only wonder how we would all stay together as a congregation, without an organist or at least a conductor to lead it. (And I am not about to conduct from the altar!)
