   * Fill thirteen weeks
   * Hold singing in the space and time where choir practice would be
-  * Maybe increase participation in choir when it starts back up
+  * Increase participation in choir when it starts back up
+To these ends, I want to move Sunday School downstairs to the Wesley Chapel where there is a better-maintained piano.
 Intentions for every week:
+  * Make "a few minutes late" still work
+  * Begin and end with a prayer
   * Sing and discuss at least one hymn
+  * Conclude promptly by 11:00 so people can do what they need to before worship service starts
 The first will be introductory and maybe we just do one hymn in order to make extra time to explain the intention and design of the series.
+=====Hymns=====
+These are (almost) all the hymns in the blue hymnal by Charles and John Wesley. I've added asterisks for hymns when someone has pointed one out as a favorite.
