12th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Thanks for a strong small-group Mass last week! Everything came together pretty well, and I appreciate your flexibility with the last-minute change in Psalm. There were also some nice comments on the music afterward. Here's the audio (**link removed**) (Ginny, I can hear you this time :-).
We had some minor feedback issues throughout Mass with (what appeared to be) the ambo & wireless mics. I'm told the vendor rebalanced the house system, so it's possible the levels are a bit too high. We'll have to keep an eye on this and see about adjusting if needed.
At the time I'm writing this, the hymn board is still a work-in-progress. We'll continue announcing all songs the same way for now (which seems to be working fine). Thanks to Ginny for handling this!
UPDATE: 06/23: The new hymn board is now assembled, but isn't ready for use yet.
If you're not familiar with All That is Hidden, please take a look. We've only done this a few times. The verses will be split for Gathering & Closing; it would also be nice to include some of the harmonies.
Since we're back to Ordinary Time, let's switch to verse 4 of Alleluia! Give the Glory. Thanks to Ken for pointing out that we've continued singing the Easter verse the past few weeks (oops -- my bad!).
Our project to build a website for the entire Music Ministry is still moving forward. Once a draft design is done, I'll meet with Joanne & Barb P. to go through the details. Hopefully more on this soon!
On a similar note, I've also been playing with building a master spreadsheet to track music selections (both historical & current). The thought is to have all of this data in one place for ease of reference. I have a ways to go with this (it's not a rush/priority), but it could be a helpful document down the line.
Finally, our July music & cantor schedule should be ready by early next week at the latest. I'm still trying to be conservative over the Summer, but there may be a few less-familiar pieces programmed that work well for the readings (these can always be changed if there's an issue).
That's all for now. Have a great week!
