Turning the Page

The past year and a half have been some precious times of depending on the Lord of our worship, and finding His grace sufficient.  My mother went to her home in heaven.  Fran's father went to his home in heaven.  My youngest and only sister I had left, went to her home in heaven.  Then my father went to his home in heaven.  I have shared my tribute to my sister earlier in my blogs.  I will be posting in the immediate future the tributes/messages for Fran's father and my mother and father given at their celebrations of life.

I retired from full-time worship leadership at FBC, Rockwall in 2015.  Then I ministered part-time to Community Baptist, Royse City, for another 6 years while teaching piano and voice at the Rockwall School of Music.  Not long ago the Lord began to lead Fran and me to move from front line in the pulpit worship leadership to the choir loft.  After teaching and preaching all these years that every choir member is a worship leader, we will now put that into practice. 

Right after this decision I began to have some health issues arise.  I won't go into detail, but God has been good in getting us to the right doctors and getting help with my issues.

So, our journey of personal and public worship takes a new turn as we minister differently after all these years.  This also allows us to invest more time into the lives of our nine wonderful grandchildren.
