Nashville, March 21— A diverse group of laity and clergy, musicians, scholars, teachers, and worship leaders blended their varied experiences to affirm in one voice that it is God’s ruach—God’s breath—that brings all creation to life, inviting every living thing to praise the Lord.  With joyful thanksgiving that all creation comes alive when we inhale God’s Spirit and then exhale in unbounded praise, the Hymnal Revision Committee of The United Methodist Church held its inaugural meeting March 19-21 at The United Methodist Publishing House in Nashville. 

This week the staff at UMPH donated items and volunteered to pack supply buckets for UMCOR (The United Methodist Committee on Relief) to send to Texas to help those affected by Hurricane Harvey. A total of 55 buckets will be shipped out!
