Today I learned...

Today I learned that "Miserere Mei, Deus" was forbidden outside the Sistine Chapel for 100 years before 14 yr old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart heard it once and recorded it in his mind, and wrote it from memory and even made corrections, sending the glorious tune out to the world to hear. I think that is amazing.

What new thing did you learn today?

I am studying about how to lead small groups and in particular the leader's role, but about the groups in general too. It is advised that a small group should not have over 12 members in it. Once that happens, because new folks have joined, a new leader should be chosen from the group and it split into 2 groups of 6 folks each. The groups main purpose is to "watch over one another in love" and foster people's relationship with God.

Very interesting! Like Jesus's 12 apostles, but also makes sense because with teaching and leading, you can't do it alone.

Hmm I think that's also the limit for a jury. Interesting.
