Missing the Good Ol' Days

Just got back from Jubilate Reunion, celebrating 35 years of alums, worship and fellowship. And I can tell you that I miss them already.

Somewhere close to 150 people showed up. Imagine all of them in the Practice Room.... Squeezed like sardines. From 1973 to 2008, Jubilate has been singing and bringing the word of God to people all over the country. And the scattered flock came back this weekend to reconnect to an organization that has continued to bring people together and changed lies. We had one woman all the way from Hungary.

The music was beautiful. The banquet was long and tiresome. We did have a night of wine and mingling downtown.

I got to connect with Meg for a hot moment while I stayed on her couch. There was also a lot of time spent with Sally, Jordan, and Sarah R. Which was so great because, when I think about it, we were together during an important time in our life. Along with Joey, Janice, Danny, Allison, Alden, and countless others, we grew up together and were there for each other. Even if it didn't feel like it at the time, we were family and could count on each other. And I can still count on them.... We're sisters and brothers. I love them so much. And I can't wait to see them at their weddings.

Next up..... Jordan Redman and Joseph Johnson!
