Subject: RE: Giving music for Christmas
These are all wonderful stories! Besides nursing homes, there are homeless shelters, and even individual homes. A woman who is a "Mother" of the church we go to lost her husband a couple of years ago and then without warning, went blind. The doctor's couldn't do anything about it, and as she is in her 90's and living at home, she lives a very restricted life now. She always loved to hear the Gospel Messengers, so we went and did a full concert just for her and her care giver, in her living room. It was a beautiful experience, and as the woman said when we asked if she was tired.. "I could just sit here and listen all day!"

Sometimes unusual situations encourage unusual responses.
