Our Country Rock Hour


     What a great morning our congregation had with Ricky Waters during the Bay of Islands Country Rock Festival! Daphne and Herb put together an order of service with everything that was needed for worship.
      And we had a feast of Gospel and Country music from Ricky and his songwriter/singer wife Maureen. The latter’s line “Is there Mothers’ Day in Heaven?” tugged more than a few heartstrings. Their sympathetic selection of solo items for worship was devotional and impessive.
     Ricky left his trademarket Stetson off in respect for the worship setting but Daphne sent him out to get it and the rest of the hour went even better! We didn’t turn our Father’s House into a den of thieves but we bought every CD they had with them.
Actually, Daphne and I had a discussion about whether it would OK to mention them, especially since was foregoing his hour on the street to be with us. I suggested that if a bearded, wild-eyed stranger came in with a whip came in we should take no notice and just go on enjoying the music.
