View from the choir

I am a Catholic layperson and Secular Franciscan with a sense of humor. After years in the back pew watching, I have moved into the choir. It's nice to see faces instead of the backs of heads. But I still maintain God has a sense of humor - and that we are created in God's image.

It's fun to sing. For it, I abandon my guitar and join the basses.

We did a twist - instead of singing the second last Hallelujah, we shout it joyfully, then pause and sing the final hallelujah.
