I am a pianist and organist at a local Presbyterian church. The choir is out for the summer, but the director and I do solo anthems for special music during the service. Our music touched many people today and you could just feel the energy and God’s presence. The pastor’s wife had just gotten news that her mother passed away this morning, so it was wonderful to be an instrument of the Lord and feel Him work through our music ministry to help those who needed healing today.

I found Him in the Sacrament of Confession. Something that was weighing on my heart was taken away and I felt a great sense of peace and grace.

Visiting a tiny Gothic Revival church in Port Townsend, Washington, 150 years old. Came away with that peace of God that passeth understanding…and a very large home-grown cucumber from a parishioner, and a little clay bird to remember my visit by. Thank you, St. Paul’s Episcopal.

I saw God at our Jubilee Service Day as 3,000 folks from over 40 churches helped Bellevue School District get their classrooms ready for the first day of school.
