Well, friends, it looks like the vast majority of the 4000 members of the Yahoo Group don't want to join us over here, which makes me sad and disappointed. I believe that this message board format will be SO MUCH better than having to wade through zillions of emails (although I suppose people who don't get the emails and just read the posts on the website like I do already can skip that part.)
I am not currently serving as a Primary Chorister so do not generally read the emails on the group. If you see something posted over there that you feel like could benefit other people, EVEN IF you are not the one who posted it, can I ask you to copy the post and share it here? If you begin your message by saying: Originally posted on the Yahoo Group by ________ (try to get a name) and then paste in the message that would be great.
And we'll keep trying to get them to come over here where things are nice and tidy!

amen! I don't know why this board isn't hopping more...I love the format so much more! Nicole, I think that this forum WILL become successful, but it will take time. Probably around the time I'm released ;D ;D. And when it is stable and a well-used resource, it will be SO much more efficient than the yahoo group. Thanks for starting that originally, and thanks for this now. Just think in one or two years, how easy it will be to search through the "Yearly Program" songs...and also the Resources, instead of trying to remember some 'key' word from a post that you remember reading on the yahoo group and then TRYING to find it.... So, I'll be here for as long as I'm chorister. I'll (re)post the messages from the yahoo board that I think are helpful. Of course that's up to my interpretation of helpful ...and how diligent I am at sorting through the mass/mess. Ha ha

I, too, appreciate this format. It takes so long to prepare for Sunday and it's just too hard to get through all of the e-mails when you just want to know about a specific song. They'll come. It'll just take some time to figure out that the "good, better, best" concept applies to the way we're sharing all of our wonderful ideas, too. Keep the faith!
