Johnson City Monthly Singing

Munsey Memorial United Methodist Church
Johnson City, Washington County, Tennessee

Sunday, November 18, 2007

The singing used The Christian Harmony (‘Carolina book’, 1873 facsimile, 1994 reprint)

Don Wiley greeted the group and Dan Huger gave a brief history and reviewed basic rudiments. The following songs were led:

78b, New Britain - Dan Huger
41t, Mediation
129t, Coronation - Chris Wilhelm
86, Ortonville
67b, Dundee - Julianne Wiley
59t, Mear
136, Sherburne - Dan Huger
137, Antioch
215t, In That Morning - Dan Huger and Sarah Hill
261b, Aberdeen - Chris Wilhelm
214, Hosanna

There were fourteen in attendance. Thank you, Chris for keeping minutes. The class did very well. ('Class' is the traditional terminology for the group, and the songs are 'lessons'.) Despite less than ideal acoustics, a good sound, a joyful noise was raised.

The third Sunday of next month is December 16. The aim is to have monthly workshops; however the realities of schedules and commitments must be considered. So, responses are needed from those who WILL be able to come on that date to make the decision about December.
