A Special Moment. . .

Today has been another busy day as we brought people through to pick out toys for their children and distributed hampers to many families. However, the special moment that I want to share occured tonight as we visited the biggest home in Atlantic Canada. We went to the Alzheimers ward and all the residents were sitting down eating a bedtime snack. So the band started to play familiar Christmas carols. I sat down at one point by this really sweet lady and I was more than impressed and touched. The carol Silent Night started to play and I started to sing. When I started to sing, she started to join in. Our eyes instantly connected, and we continued to look at one another as we sang the song together. It was such a special moment. A woman who has difficulty knowing what is going on around her, immediately started to sing Silent Night. We sang a couple more songs together after that, which was just as enjoyable. However, this special moment truly blessed me and once again I realized the impact that God's gift of music has on each of us as we journey through life.

God Bless,
Rebecca
