WHEN THE CHOIR VISITED AARHUS<br />
This autumn, the Aarhus congregation had a real treat: The church choir from<br />
Copenhagen came over for our service. We do have a choir of our own –<br />
Margaret Clark – who does a fantastic job; however, we were looking forward<br />
to listening to St Alban’s Church Choir and the organist, Mie Berg.<br />
During the last couple of months, there had been many calls and e-mails back<br />
and forth in order to plan the event. Angela and Pam Christensen from Aarhus<br />
took care of the details. Weeks in advance, they had coordinated food and<br />
transportation.<br />
The choir arrived by train. Volunteers picked them up, and drove them to<br />
Møllevangskirken. Now they needed something to eat, before they could give<br />
us something for the soul, especially, since the choir had already been singing at<br />
the service in Copenhagen. After a quick sandwich and a cup of tea, the choir<br />
was ready for rehearsal for their second service that day.<br />
Since we are not used to having a large choir, our services have been adjusted a<br />
bit, but that Sunday we had the full Anglican service, which was a new<br />
experience for many in our congregation. Besides, we could see that the<br />
prospect of enjoying the choir had attracted others than the regular churchgoers.<br />
