Certainly there might have been some way to work it in, if only in the remarks of one of the speakers. That would have made a tremendous difference in that moment.Charles F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16470576401126124958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166856895646052762.post-16269125250341464872011-05-15T19:46:03.320-07:002011-05-15T19:46:03.320-07:00Charles, you had no way of knowing this, but we pi...Charles, you had no way of knowing this, but we picked Amazing Grace b/c Luis (our coordinator from CEPAD) asked us to sing it for him during our trip. So it had special meaning for us. I see your point that it could have lulled some people back into comfort. Maybe for others it could have been a reminder of the need for grace from the sin of gluttony? Either way, I hope I don't come across as defensive - just trying to give you the back story.

I don't propose I have all the answers, but I'm not sure we need answers as much as questions right now.Charles F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16470576401126124958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166856895646052762.post-79631501817398832612011-05-15T14:00:43.486-07:002011-05-15T14:00:43.486-07:00Hi Charles,

I often feel that congregations are like college classes. Most just want to know what is the minimum to "pass." There are times that I wonder if any American can get into heaven. We are just not used to idea of submitting ourselves completely to anyone's or anything's control. Let's hope.Michael O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06018261810285893567noreply@blogger.com
