FUMC -> [[fumc::120th-anniversary|120th Anniversary Rededication]]

This service is Sunday, May 17th at 4:00 PM.

NOTE The "Single Source of Truth" for the service is the actual script, **not this document**. If there is a difference between them, **this document is in error**. It's basically just here to collect and track notes and resources now.

====Technical Details====
Bishop Stoneking needs to be wearing the lavalier microphone. Everyone else will have to pass the handheld mic around.

Misc items:
  * There is a brass Bible stand that will need to be on the communion table before the service starts. The stand is currently on a table in the Northwest foyer. The Bible it currently holds is gigantic, but looks to be in pretty rough shape.
  * We need to choose and pre-set a special table for the artifacts.
