"The 7 Game"

Hello everyone! I've been tagged by my sweet friend Angie to play "The 7 Game". I'm supposed to tell 7 things about myself that most people don't know. Hmm...well...how about some things that some people who read this blog won't know...

1. I can sing songs in 6 languages. That's English, Latin, Spanish, German, French, Swahili.

2. I sang with a Choir that was kicked out of the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, France. Ok...so it wasn't really that bad. :o) We were told at the last minute that we couldn't use their pipe organ, which limited the songs we could do a capella (without instruments). We sang all of the classical songs we could, and then sang some "spirituals". After singing, "Every Time I Feel the Spirit", we were told that our concert was over. Too peppy for them, I guess!

3. I was a BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) discussion leader for 6 years.

4. I swam with dolphins and fed stingrays from my hand in Cozumel, Mexico while on a Cruise.

5. I was born in Germany.

6. I was on a lot of missions teams in college and graduate school. Did a lot of construction work, leading music, and working with children. The last missions trip I went on was in 2002. For this trip, I was on a Worship Team leading music for a retreat for full-time missionaries (and their kids) that was held in Malta (Paul was shipwrecked there...see Acts). Chris and I were both on this team, and this is how we first got to know each other.

7. I play the flute...but only for myself these days!

Let's see...I'm supposed to "tag" seven people to participate in this game.

I "tag" these lovely people:

1. Beth
2. Janet
3. Shannon
4. Sherri
5. Merrielle
6. Amy
7. Emily
