Great Day!
The folks love Peter, Mike and Mike...
We were so thrilled to see that everybody from last time, was able to come back; and, icing on the cake we had five new people join in to help us sing!
In order to help us remember every body's names... we used the tried and true name tags... well everybody but....Mike and Mike. That is right Helen and Mary had their name tags on. Joanne and Evelyn had their name tags; Millie, she wore hers but she didn't really need one because Peter and I both wanted to sit real close to her....right? You guested it she knows all the Words to ALL the Songs! Dorothy had a name tag on; and our new guests, Arlene, Rose, Bessie and Ester HAD THEIR NAME TAGS ON....corny maybe, but VERY HELPFUL!

So I tried to find out the "back" story on why the two Mike's did not put their name tag on...The "story" I got... each thought the tag belonged to the other...so Mike thought it was Mike's name tag; and Mike though it was Mike's name tag! Oh well we were not confused at all. Mike, the drums sounded great; and ,Mike the piano sounded great too!
Honestly, we started out so organized...but when we started splitting up the LARGE PRINT songs sheets; well the paper started flying. We had many more singers than expected and ran out of "song books";The good news is, having the Large Print was a hit. I could tell; and it did my heart good to see everybody singing!
But not only that, Selma did come in, now she was all excited about seeing family that she could not stay, but maybe next time. Word is her husband will be returning after a gig at rehab; so my hope is; not only will she stay next time, but that Selma's husband will be well enough to join us on the 28th of October.
Now, before I forget, I met Roland on the front porch he was on his way to an appointment...Next time he wants to join us; so we will send him a reminder note.

Several Notes from Brenda:
Brenda, wanted me to give Linda (who was out this week on vacation to visit with daughter and grandchild) the dates for November. Brenda wants us to come the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month...November 4th and November 18th. That really looks good; as Thanksgiving week is wide open...that should leave Christmas wide open too.
Also, Brenda said the morning went great...she thought and loved the style and format...from the songs and the music, to the singing and reading of the Bible verses a great combination...

Did I mentioned to she loved seeing everybody singing. All together we had fun in this Joyful hour of the day!
Last but not least...A HUGE THANK YOU to BRENDA, who copied our Letter to invite; and let everybody in the building know that they are WELCOME to join LINDA, PETER, MIKE, MIKE and I; and, to come and help us SHOUT to the LORD with JOY!
