Prayer Request

Hey!

I have been invited to lead a CBG workshop at our church!

It will be the Saturday (day) before Father's Day.  It will be for father's and kids.

I am designing a simple dulcimer CBG so the kids and dads can put these together pretty easily.

I have calculated costs for the kits to about $10 a guit which will be very affordable.

I will be putting together a lesson about our uniqueness in Christ and how we are redeemed.

Should be a GREAT time!

This is kind of a test run for another workshop I want to do in the community for at risk kids.

Prayers much appreciated!

In Christ,
Alan

More prayer cover on the way.

Events like this don't just put themselves together, good on you.

Well, two days away.  I have 20 kits ready.  18 students.

Should be a great time.

Kits coming in at little over $15 each.

Nice little kit.

FOLLOW UP:  This was a HUGE success!  Wound up making 11 guitars.  Students had a great time.

Looks like we might have to have another in the fall.  ;)

God is good!
