Braggin' on the band
Posted: October 25th, 2008, 11:01 am
Last night was the normal worship band rehearsal night, and some of the guys usually stop by the office on the way to pick up things stored here before they head to the rehearsal site.
I found out when they stopped by last night that, instead of rehearsing, they had set up to play a worship concert at the Onemalu Transitional Family Shelter. This is the same shelter we have worked with in the past. One year we provided a catered Christmas Party with gifts for every child and teen in the shelter.
The residents have asked our band to be the "entertainment" for their December 20 Christmas event, and we are thrilled. In a different, but related note, our guest speaker tomorrow will be Brother Ben, who has one of the most recognizable voices in Hawaii. His Gospel Connection radio broadcast is listened to in every cellblock at every correctional institution in Hawaii.
