By request of a number of church folks, we are organizing caroling for some neighborhood shut-ins immediately after the Christmas eve service on Friday the 24th. This is very informal. Enough folks are already enthusiatically committed to make it work, so no one should feel obligated to give up family plans, etc. Rather, this is an invitation to the fun of old-fashioned caroling. All ages, and all levels of musical ability are welcome. I will be resonsible for leading the carols. The logistics, I believe, are being arranged by by Steve & Janice Friesen, Ann Palmer, and others---more info will be shared on Sunday. There may still be opportunities to expand the list of carolees if you know of someone in the neighborhood. However, we will try to limit the time to about one hour. Here's some favorite carols we will likely sing (no more than 2 verses of each), so you can bone up on the words if you need to--it will be too dark to have copies of the music: Silent Night Joy to the World Away in a Manger O little Town of Bethlehem Hark, the herald Angels Sing We Wish You a Merry Christmas and others by request So bundle up, tune up, and feel the joy!
