The Church Report

Choir practice went OK.  I was really good, once upon a time, at being able to play parts for the choir.  Today I had Pam help me.  :)

After choir, Pam, Jaela, Karilyn, Liberty and I practiced "If the Savior Stood Beside Me" for Sacrament meeting.  They sang and I played.  Later, we performed it and it was absolutely beautiful.  They did a great job.

Sacrament meeting was so great today.  The Swat...s spoke and she hadn't given a talk in fifteen years, she said.  Her talk blew my mind.  It was exactly what I needed to hear, and made me quite weepy... then I had to get up and play the piano for that song.  No fair.

Later, after church, the very kind and lovely and generous Sandy P. brought me a plate of pecan bar cookies she'd made. As Rosalind says, "They're like eating a big bite of heaven." OH seriously. I'd ask Sandy for the recipe, but then I'd make them and eat them.
