    We'd be delighted to have you for a quinta vox anytime!

    I fixed a few typos in our booklet, and then noticed even more tonight. Always grateful for any crowd-sourced proofreading. The congregation was undaunted, thankfully.

    The title, yes, unfortunately. I used the cropping feature of the old Illuminari interface.

    'Jesus fall' is number III of your posting above. Maybe you have already corrected it?
