Dear friends,
I just watched the video on our church homepage from How Great Thou Art, and I can't help but leap to my e-mail once again to thank Jack, Jeremy, Evan, Zuri, and each and every one of you for being willing to broaden the reach of God's love in your sharing and singing of HOW GREAT THOU ART yesterday. For many, that was a step out of a comfort zone (composer included, as I understand it! I also don't see Jeremy swing all that often, and I've got to confess to really enjoying it-- he's pretty good at it. I plan to send this to ALCM ASAP :) ). It is often when we step out of our areas of particular comfort that we can grow, where we must trust, and where we can be changed. That's what I learned when I stepped away from a beloved community to come to Lincoln, and I continue to be so thankful that God is continuing to provide opportunities for each of us to be messengers of hope, peace, and love through the ministry of First-Plymouth Church.
How Great Thou Art, indeed, and how great you all art as well. Thank you for being the Plymouth Choir.
