We spent a lot of our time singing today - Jesus Is The Sweetest Name I Know, Oh How I Love Jesus, Amazing Grace, etc. Many of these residents have memory issues. But, when we started to sing the old hymns their memory improved. We would sing, then minister, then sing, then minister. As they continued to remember the hymns other things in their lives would come to mind. It was a wonderful thing to watch. After the service residents were talking about things the staff had never heard about before.
"For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword. . ." Heb. 4:12
