A singing (also known as a church singing or a hymn singing) is a Christian meeting in which church members gather together to sing hymns.
These are often held on Sunday afternoons or Sunday evenings, being seen as a way to sanctify the Lord's Day.
[1][2] Singings are common in churches of Conservative Anabaptism such as the Apostolic Christian Church, as well as those of Methodist denominations such as the First Congregational Methodist Church.
[3][4][5] The attendance of singings is seen as a way for youth to meet those of the opposite gender to pursue a courtship that will eventually lead to Christian marriage; there are singings for different age groups, however, and certain singings are for married couples to worship God together.
[6][7][8] These singings bring together many Christians and in some areas, range from sixty to eighty people.
