Music is a huge part of my life. While I classify myself as a mediocre amateur, I still enjoy listening and participating in music.
Did your "youngest son" participate in the NYSB future all stars again this year? I just read on a blog by our Chief Secretary that the NYSB Future all star weekend was this weekend. I was just curious. I remember hearing he had a great time last year.
Chris,
Yes, Joshua went to the NYSB all-star weekend. In fact, he returned home just a few minutes ago. As expected he had a good time again.
The week-end gave him a couple of great opportunities. First, he got to meet and work with the excellent musicians in the NYSB. Second, he got to meet other young people from all over the USA and Canada who share his love of Salvation Army music.
Music camps played an important role in my life. I fondly remember the friendships developed at Camp Ladore and Star Lake. I remember playing and singing great music. And I remember hearing the moving testimonies of Salvationist musicians who had dedicated their talents to the glory of God.
I'm glad that my sons are able to have similar experiences. You'll enjoy it when your children are able to do the same. I'm looking forward to that.
