Tonight was our 1st Fellowship Singing in Boaz AL. Our goal is to get more young people involved in singing on a regular basis and that goal was met tonight. 😀

Some things we are doing differently in what we're labeling a "Shape-Note Gospel Fellowship Singing" to distinguish from other gospel singing practices.

1. Sit in a hollow square (ish) in voice parts (tenor and bass intermingle)
2. We sing the shapes first on every song
3. We sing 25 minutes and take a 5 minute recess, then repeat (instead of incorporating lots of "specials")
4. We respect that all people believe differently, therefore we welcome anyone to attend and participate regardless of belief
5. We eat afterwards! 😀😀😀
