I'm going to ask the traditional choir director to help us with the Easter Sequence. It doesn't make any sense to me (mostly because I can't read notes). I've already talked to her about it. She'll just sneak in and lead the congregation, then sneak back out of the choir corner.

On Sunday, I'm gonna try to get to St. Pius by 7AM. Mass starts at 9AM. Could you all get there by 7:30AM? Thanks!

If you guys wanna practice, let me know. I'm free tomorrow after 2PM every day except Thursday. We can meet up.

Lastly, if you guys know of anybody that wants to sing, play bass, or cajon, just forward them this e-mail! Thanks again. Have a blessed Holy Week!
