This Saturday is the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord.
Last Saturday, several of us didn't make it to mass due to the weather. I also canceled practice to be on the safe side, so I don't have much in the way of news this week.
The music for January has been approved with only one minor change.
On Monday night, I attended the Lenten Planning Meeting -- here are a few music highlights:
Our Psalm is a repeat of the one from last week, SS 70 -- please let me know if you'd be interested in doing it.
We have one new song on the board, GC 515, Praise to You, O Christ, Our Savior. Please look it over if unfamiliar.
Maggie is out this week.There's a possibility that Karina and I won't be there as well, so stay turned for further details on what the plan is.

UPDATE (1/7): Barb let me know that Father is listing the Penitential Rite on the 9 AM mass program for this weekend, so we should be prepared to do it one more time just in case.
UPDATE (1/7): Jonathan reports that "[Last] Saturday did go well. It was me, chip, jacky, michaela and lisa. I called us "The Frozen Chosen" because we made it even with the roads being so bad. It was pretty fun!"
UPDATE (1/8): for those interested, I made a few more changes to the website, including new page dividers on the repertoire pages (which will hopefully eliminate a browser formatting issue) and added several new images to the slideshow on the sidebar.
