 =====Calendar=====
 I want to have **one or two** hymns per week to sing and discuss.
-As of March 6, there are **eighteen** hymns I'm confident I will have ready before the class starts. I would prefer not to make any more additions or changes.
 I probably need help choosing which hymns to put on which weeks, what questions to ask, etc.
