What We Say When We Sing
Thank you to all of you who participated in the survey to determine our congregation's favorite hymns. There were 34 members and friends of our congregation who responded. The votes have been tallied and the winners are...
Here I am Lord
How Great Thou Art
Amazing Grace
Following those top three are In the Garden, All Hail the Power of Jesus Name, Faith of our Fathers and For the Beauty of the Earth. In all 62 hymns were recorded, the majority were the favorite of just one or two people.
I'll start speaking about the meaning behind each of these hymns on July 1.
July 1 Here I am Lord
God's Call and Our Response
July 8 How Great Thou Art
The Impulse to Praise
July 15 Amazing Grace
Grace in All its Forms
July 29 In The Garden

Untold Possibilities
Each hymn that was submitted will be sung at least once in the next year. Thanks for all your help with this project.
I look forward to seeing you and signing with you throughout the summer.
In hope and confidence,
Stefanie Bennett
