Guess where we went!
Hollywood!
Actually this is Martinsville, VA. This is on the hilltop next to the local Walmart. Isn't that awesome! Paula and I went with her family to minister in Martinsville at the beginning of January. The cool thing about this trip is that Melvin & Diane Welch are the corps officers there.
Paula and I were in training with Melvin and Diane. So they are friends of ours. We had a great time. Paula convinced me to sing a solo and I nailed it. "Big deal," you may be saying. Yes I am trained in music. Early on, the more I learned about voice, the more I realized I am better suited as an ensemble vocalist... not a soloist.
I sang "Word Of God Speak" and simply nailed it. I guess I kinda regained a confidence in my ability to 1) sing a solo and 2) sing and play piano at the same time. Paula and I are thinking of scheduling ourselves out to corps (without her family) as our own ministry. Paula and I are both preachers in our own right.
Maybe I am just missing the old "glory" days of officership. I don't know. All I know is that Paula and I are finding new directions. We are following.
I have survived.
