Happy Sunday Fam!
The day after choir rehearsal is always a blur! But we actually captured the kids in rehearsal yesterday. 7 kids were away doing different summer activities so our group was a little more intimate, BUT don't let the size fool you; the energy they have (oh to be young again).
I'm mindful of the blessing it is to work with children and it's not something I take lightly.
I'm absolutely grateful for the help I have because truthfully they make teaching easy. There are so many reasons why I started with choir BUT the easiest one is this; I was an absolutely privileged child who came from a mother that invested in all my talents. I started piano lessons at 3 years old and music has always been my safe space, me moment to tap out, so I can tap into the Source that sustains me. To this day, if I'm having a moment I can play for hours, and make my fingers cry for me. When you add the singing it just brings you to another space and place. You don't need keys to sing, just a voice that is willing.
Yesterday we started cleaning up a new song we are learning "My Worship ". Very simple yet powerful song. As you can see the kids got through it, wrapped in a tablecloth (because they were cold), stimming (to self regulate), leaning back and singing. Yesterday they learned WHY we Worship and we will keep building on that just like we will eventually build the harmony in and probably raise the key too lol.
At choir we are a safe space where we will sing, stim, & grow!
I hope this blessed you as much as it blessed me.
