You'll need to bring your own copy of The Messiah to the sing-in. If you need one you can print it yourself (as noted above) or you can purchase your own. We'll be using the Schirmer's Edition this year.
Personal note: My favorite way to shop for books online is through BestWebBuys.com (at http://www.bestwebbuys.com/books/index.html ) Use the ISBN #0793505070 to find the best price on the Internet for the score of The Messiah.

Practice on your own
There are no formal rehearsals for the chorus for this Sing-in. If you'd like to brush up on your own part, rehearse for free at http://cyberbass.com/Major_Works/Handel_GF/Handel_Messiah.htm

(4) "And the glory of the Lord
(7) "And He Shall Purify the Sons of Levi"
(9) "Oh Thou that Tellest Good Tidings to Zion" (last half after the Alto solo)
(12) "For Unto Us A Child is Born"
(17) "Glory to God"
(21) "His Yoke Is Easy"
(22) "Behold the Lamb of God"

We anticipate this year's program to run for 1 1/2 hours.
