Last Sunday as I sat in church I thought, “It’s been forever. Where’s that new hymnal???”
I dug up this thread, found the official link, read the FAQ, and saw…
When will the new books be available?
Development of the prototypes for both books is expected to take several years as the committees coordinate together, considering both new and existing hymns and songs for inclusion. Translation of the books will begin after that work is complete.
I wonder whether the new hymnal will get fast-tracked so it can be a part of Nelson’s shock and awe campaign for changes. They need something dramatic to announce during this up-coming general conference, right?
