Teaching a 5 year old boy how to sing!

Tonight I was teaching a 5 year old boy how to sing. It was his second voice lesson. We were coloring the anatomy of the organs/body parts that aid in singing. I asked him to color the diaphragm. He responded, "OK. But first the body needs a penis!" I tried my best to keep him on task but before I could get control of the situation, the penis was drawn! I guess he wanted the skeleton to be a boy just like him! Oh the joys of teaching!!!

The homeless are God's creations too

On Sunday night we had the privilege of teaming up with a group from New Song Church to prepare a meal for the homeless and serve it. Our Imago Dei home community helped the New Song team this past Sunday. The experience was beyond belief. 350 homeless men & women were fed under the Burnside Bridge. They were so VERY grateful. It was rewarding for us to finally be able to do what our hearts had desired for so long. As we were cleaning up and packing the serving tables back in the vans, I watched as the men & women laid down to go to bed with just a sleeping bag or even just a blanket on a very cold Portland night. I wished we could have done more.
