Dutch Church

We went to church today. Turned out to be all in Dutch. Thought we were going to a Dutch Christmas Organ Concert - that's what the lady who answered the telephone told Marilyn it was. So here we were with the comprehension of a couple of five year olds, sitting in the hard pews, trying to figure it all out. The program was familiar. We knew to stand whenever there was a * on the bulletin. We bowed our heads when the others did. We hummed the familiar tunes. We dozed during the sermon. And in the end we were blessed with the most wonderful, vibrating, pipe organ caroles imaginable. Very much worth the wait!
