Along with a handful of other women, I showed up at the choir rehearsal, which took place right before the banquet. That's when I learned that we'd be singing three songs--two of which I had never heard of.
And from the music I heard, it sure didn't sound like the other women had, either.
Instead of dragging this story out, let me just mention three small things I learned from the experience:
- 45 minutes is not really long enough for a group of strangers to learn three new full-length songs together.
- It's not a good idea to perform a song in a concert when you didn't quite get to the second half of it in rehearsal.
- While "letting the Spirit lead" sounds very spiritual, let's just say you may be led places that the music's composer never imagined.
Love number 3! that's funny! :)
