Our Sacred Harp/Shape Note group sings 2 evenings a month in Tallahassee Fl- with one of those singings at the Meetinghouse. This Monday night (4th Mondays), instead of singing in Meeting's glassed-in sunporch, we will sing in the worship room for the first time in some years The ancient musty carpet has been taken up- and that prompts our move! My faith is that our living God is everywhere present. As a human on this journey, my feeling of being, singing & worshiping in this room has special spiritual aliveness and connectedness. I have worshiped in this loving Friends community here for so many years. I was married in this room. Our singers recall the solace of singing "Sweet Peace," in this room right after 9/11. Some of us experienced the death of our mothers around the same time, and discovered that "She is Sleeping" was a gift to us. So Monday, we will sing from the Sacred Harp-Denson Book as well as the Christian Harmony. We are typically a very mirthful group and we welcome any new or visiting singers. We also sing from the Cooper SH edition on most Friday nights after the second Sunday.
