My sweet wife called me at work today and said, "you'll never guess who commented on your blog, someone from our past..." My first thought was Captain Kangaroo, but I think he's dead and that was too far back in our past anyway. So I gave up. I logged onto my blog at work and was floored to see our old friend Sandi's smiling face. Several great memories jumped back into my head. Lots of singing, laughing, fellowship, praying... What a blessing. Those of you who know Sandi should visit her web site. She and Dave have a beautiful family. Go to my last post and click on Sandi's picture under the comments.
Anyway, by way of celebrating this reconnection of friends, I've uploaded yet another of my poor quality videos from about 1991. This is Sandi singing her song "New Vision". I love the opening lines sung as the Lord speaking: "You know it breaks my heart to see you messing around and not giving it all to me". Great lyric. Also seen in the video are Richard and Denise. Anyone know where they landed? I think Richard is doing the local weather for a station in Arizona. Does that sound right? Seeing Denise, I'm reminded of the time she poured molasses all over Melody's car windshield as a joke. Grrrr... Sometimes we have to keep working through forgiveness for years, I guess. Paul on the electric guitar is a lawyer somewhere.
Anyway... I hope you enjoy the video, Sandi. Melody said you'd want to show it to your kids. Say hello to Dave for me!
We are doing a sermon series on parenting right now at the Church. I found

Yes- I remember that one!
Ahhhh- Richard Cagle- we haven't heard from him in a LONG time.
I should show these to my kids to prove that I actually was part of the worship team.
Anyway, I've emailed some more 'old timers.' We'll see who else shows up... it'll be another surprise for you!
At least this was filmed AFTER the mandatory doilies were lifted! ;P
Chip and Melody- you guys rock :)(love the fact you saved some of these!) ... We left shortly after 91 (when miss Callie was born). It was so magical that we could say, "you know I've got this song"...and then that orchestra and all the talented musicians could take it and run with it...put it together and people could jump in and harmonize. How fun is that!! So glad to reconnect. If anyone has any thing they are working on now...I'd love to hear it!!
What a blast from the Past!
