I thank you god....

Tomorrow at church we are installing our new music director and organist. There will be no sermon, but plenty of music tomorrow, at all services. Even our contemporary worship service will have a mini hymn sing, featuring the organ.

Between the hymns or songs, the other pastor and I will have short reflections. I decided to read e.e. cummings poem, i thank you god for this amazing day. When searching the internet for it, I found this marvelous choral version I'd like to share with you.



Personally, I need a break from "other news" these days."

Thank you for this! I wonder if gratefulness is in short supply these days...this is a wonderful reminder of simple abundance.

It also reminds me of the days recently spent in Yellowstone and the Tetons. It is easy to be grateful in such natural splendor!

I hope yesterday was a joy. I've finally found out where my son lives, so I can tell him about your church; he's really close. But he still doesn't have his address registered with the postoffice.
