Our choir anthem for Sunday, October 13, 2013: When I Think of You (Michael W. Smith, arr. by Gary Rhodes, Word Music, 0 80689 28127 3).
Since our Cherub Choir was featured, I was hoping to have a video of them to show here, but it hasn't appeared on Facebook yet, so instead you can hear it at JWPepper.com: When I Think of You. If you picture a bunch of African kids singing (and dancing), the music makes a lot more sense.
Sunday was also St. Francis Day, with the annual Blessing of the Animals. This is when I get to brag that we go to a snake-handling church. Dogs outnumbered every other pet by far, however. Now picture an outdoor service, with animals everywhere, including two very excitable dogs in the choir, and a bunch of very excitable, very young Cherubs ... no wonder the priest said, as he greeted the newcomers, "It's not like this every Sunday."
