During 2014, the WELS
Hymnal Project has conducted three surveys to solicit input about how the
current hymnal is being used and how the new hymnal can best serve our church
body. The first was for pastors, the second for teachers, and the third for
musicians.
This fourth survey, intended for all WELS members, asks for feedback
on things like chanting psalms, instruments suited for accompany worship,
wording for the songs and prayers of worship, and singing hymns and songs of
the liturgy in four-part harmony. You'll find it at: http://welshymnal.com/blog/member-survey.
The survey will be
available until November 25, 2014. All of our input will help to shape the worship life of our
children and grandchildren.
The plan is for the new hymnal
to be available in 2024, the 500th anniversary of the first Lutheran hymnal and
31 years after the publication of the current WELS hymnal, Christian Worship.
