I must admit that I finally withdrew from the choir a few years ago.
I used to be a soprano in our choir at my previous parish. One of the nicest times in my life. That was half a lifetime ago: with the way I sound now, if God weren’t omniscient, He’d think there was a scared chicken in the pew! Lol!
I enjoyed reading your story. I have a question, what is a”Birdie”? I know you wouldn’t take offense at my asking, and I didn’t quite get it from the context... Thank you, and thank you for sharing you story with us!
