EVERYDAY SINGERS                                         Starts Feb. 26

RuthE. is recruiting for a potential "choir-lite" group that will consider the use of secular/popular music in a sacred context.  If you love to sing along to the radio or in the shower, this might be a way you could use those skills to make a joyful noise in worship.  Singers and instrumentalists (guitars, drums, etc.) are needed.  The goal is to perform at least one number in worship 4-6 times/year.  First rehearsal will be after church Feb. 26 for one hour.  Please contact RuthE. in advance so she can arrange enough copies of the material:ruthe.wells@gmail.com.
