Gabe, I'm sure Ray can help given that he's the music director at a
Methodist church!

As an initial starting point, I would ask the pianist/music director what
he/she has in mind and if it's "wide open" then you have some good
suggestions from the list.

I'm assuming you'll be playing before Advent (which starts Nov. 30th this
year), so you probably won't have to narrow your selection.  However, the
music director or pastor (or priest..) might really like the music to be
supportive of the message that day.  This would be a thematic approach in
supporting the service that day.
