I especially enjoyed hearing about your days as a PK and playing the piano in church, as well as hitchhiking with your dad...and that Little Church in the Wildwood...is a precious song to me, too...because my father would sing that to us as children on the way to church. He wasn't a very good singer, but the memory will always be a precious one. So, I so love your scrapbook page...it says so much!<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>LindaLinda Bornemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09992766379422830782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7250249658831736534.post-60846851300637680832008-12-02T11:26:00.000-06:002008-12-02T11:26:00.000-06:00Wow...not a simple page at all!

Like in your story--they had no piano player. So I practiced for two weeks the hymns that dh wanted to use--and Communion music. The Sunday rolls around--I am nervous, but ready. Turns out one of the member's nephew was home for a week from MUSIC SCHOOL. There was no way I was getting within 10 feet of that piano. (He played beautifully--very easy to tell--because that congregation didn't sing loud).

I was a PK also but not until I was in high school, my Dad was ordained the year I graduated and was a part time pastor for rural churches like your stamp until he retired and served full time ministry. Your church was brown, his were white for several years until he moved to a bigger church. Your church looks like the one here in MD. where my husband and I were married.<BR/>Glad you are journaling more, it is so important. If I don't write the memories down, there will be no one else to ask so I am doing that when I can.

My 18-month-old is getting robbed!

DH always wanted to take a notebook and get some stories from my mother - but he left it too late. She was always coming out with things we'd never heard of, never mind the things we only knew very sketchily. So go for it. <BR/>Didn't get time to leave a comment on your advent post. I must look up that Stuart Townend hymn, I don't know it. Love Joy to the World, but I think my all-time favourite Advent hymn is Oh Come Oh Come Emmanuel, and it was on the BBC Morning Service on the radio yesterday.Sabrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17522656235476335067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7250249658831736534.post-16410009536985844442008-12-01T13:47:00.000-06:002008-12-01T13:47:00.000-06:00Such great memories Judy!
