Children and the Organ
This past Sunday as I was playing the organ postlude, I saw in my peripheral vision someone standing off to the side. I lost my focus for a beat as I wondered who it was and what he wanted. To my surprise it was a father with his 3 or 4-year old son. The little guy wanted to see the “thing” that made all the noise.
As this was happening, someone walked by and jokingly said, “Chris, it looks like you might have some competition on the organ bench.” Those words have been with me the last few days. Not the competition part, but the part of nurturing our young people to consider pursuing church music vocations.
