Lessons Learned from December Center Celebration
1. Clearly denote which hymnal along with the hymn number
2. Ensure that the musicians who play on Sunday have practiced together at least once.
3. He/she who led the hymn the last time in practice should lead the hymn on the Sunday of worship.
... more to come...
... also need to record who participated...

Possible/Probable Hymns for January's Center Celebration (Themes: Epiphany and Healing):
We Three Kings (#646)
I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light (#649)
We are Marching in the Light of God (#650)
Shine Jesus Shine (#651)
Alleluia Song of Gladness (#654)
Awake, Awake, and Greet the New Dawn (#633)
Go My Children with My Blessing (#721)
I will try to have musicians' copies available for the Christmas Eve (early) service... and otherwise leave packets available in Pastor's office for the remainder of the weekend.
Tentative practice times -- throughout the week of 12/29... Center Celebration is 1/4.
