Sopranos Take the Lead
This is a posting of the e-mail I just sent to the choir. If you would like to receive my e-Inchoirer let me know.
Wow!!!
The sopranos earned 220 points last Sunday morning to the altos 130 so they have now taken the lead in our "I Sing, You Sing, We All Sing for Choir" contest! Weeks ago the altos had a lead that made it look like they would breeze across the finish line way ahead of the men and sopranos.

But with some hard work and dedicated attendance, the sopranos now lead by 30 points.
The men are also closing the gap with a score only 70 behind the altos.
So here are the official numbers.
Sopranos - 2310
Altos - 2280
Men - 2210
I hope I'll see all of you tonight in choir. With a good number here tonight, any team could take the lead!

New Schedule
Have we mentioned the new schedule? Or better, I should ask, Have you paid attention to the fact that beginning THIS COMING SUNDAY we have a new schedule at Hilldale?
(We actually had someone call up here last week and complain that we hadn't told anyone about the new schedule.)
You may have noticed on the cover of this month's newsletter and in every bulletin for the last few weeks and announced more than once each of the last few weeks...
WE HAVE A SCHEDULE CHANGE!!
On Sundays
8:30 - we will have a worship service, a children's worship service and LifeGroups (formerly known as Sunday School classes).
9:45 - LifeGroups and worship at the main campus, LifeGroups at the FLC
11:00 - worship at the FLC
On a totally different note...
It was on this date in 1940 that Bugs Bunny made his debut.
If I had known earlier I would have worn one of my many Bugs Bunny ties today. I guess I'll wear one Wednesday to choir.

Ice Cream Contest Update
The sopranos are gaining little by little on the altos once-strong lead. The men are also closing the gap with some nice showings in the last few weeks. The race is really getting close and exciting. We may have to have a photo finish!
With a good number here Sunday any team could jump ahead!
Here are the standings today.
Soprano - 2090
Alto - 2150
Men - 2030
We also want to welcome a new soprano, Diane, and two returning altos, Rochelle and Kathy!

Next Sunday's Order of Worship
I know it is early in the week to be posting Sunday's service, but the rest of my week is going to be rather crazy as my lovely wife and I finally get to move to Clarksville! Trucks and strong men are showing up at our old house in beautiful Whites Creek on Thursday and will deliver everything to our new house - which is also in a very beautiful area out in the countryside of Clarksville and yet only 6.8 miles from Hilldale Baptist Church! (We've been driving over 35 for two years now.) So I can't guarantee any posts after today for the rest of this week.
Our house still hasn't sold, so please pray that someone will buy it. But we did work out a nice arrangement for my son who is moving home to Tennessee to live there as he sells his house in OKC. God's timing is always perfect.
Our new house has turkeys and rabbits and deer in the back. I like the deer now, but figure I will learn to hunt when they eat my hostas, iris and daylilies (which I am bringing with me - and you can never have too many of them if you are thinning yours out. let's talk).
So anyway, here is Sunday morning's service.
July 26, 2009 AM

Amazing Grace
Special music

Invitation – Just As I Am

Ice Cream Contest - the Real Results
In last night's Inchoirer I had some points listed but I had totally messed them up. The addition was all wrong and I left some things out.
The men had a good showing last night with 17 present! That gives them 170 points (and since they are a little behind I'm giving them credit for a returning member so that's another 50 points for a total of 220! Yeah men! I think that's the first time they have won a Wednesday night.
Last night's points:
Soprano - 120
Alto - 140
Men - 220!
Oh! Speaking of winning. I don't know how he does it, but Mark Black has won a prize THREE nights! He just keeps getting the lucky number.
Without any further ado, here is the actually score as of today.
Soprano - 1780
Alto - 1910
Men - 1700
