I was honestly surprised yesterday to find that my church does not know how to sing traditional Christmas songs. Or maybe the new song leader does not know how they go. One thing artists who cover old standards understand is that the people already know the songs. And they know that you have to be true to the original or the audience will turn you off. That is what happened to me yesterday. At least last night we were able to sing some Christmas songs the right way.
I am also surprised that no Christmas bonus was publicly given to our pastors. They deserve something from us. They ought to be blessed by the church that they serve. Why was nothing given to them?
I was blessed to see my daughter sing last night. She sounds nothing like her mother. But she did a great job on short notice.
There seems to be nothing but a regular church service the Wednesday before Christmas. That seems like a wasted opportunity for something special to be done.
I was blessed to be invited to a New Year's Eve celebration. One reason why I moved here is to not spend holidays alone. I won't this year that's for sure.
Putting Santa in a gang fight was classic San Antonio. That thought never even crossed my mind.
A new building is old news for me. But it is a pressing issue here. I have been through this in Prescott. This is the first construction job this church has undertaken. We will get through this together and live to tell about it.
That's enough for today. God bless us, everyone!
