The Calm Before.....

It's Mono Monday and time for another relaxing rehearsal for Bells of Praise.  We start out by sharing prayer requests and praise reports for answered prayers---with a joke or two or a funny story that someone can't resist telling sprinkled in and I think that everyone would agree that the beginning part  of our time together is relaxing.  The same cannot be said for the next part when the ringing starts.  It is a mental and physical exercise----but the reward is sweet harmonious music when we finally get it right.  It IS why we practice, after all!
