Today has been a wonderful day! I went back to church this morning, it was great to see a lot of new people in the congregation, boosting the numbers, including a few new families. It was also brilliant to catch up with some of my friends, The Twins being the main ones. I've known them since we were all 2 and we have some wonderful memories. The service was great with a drama for Palm Sunday written by one of our members.
Went home for a few hours and enjoyed a lovely roast pork lunch before heading out again. It was with The Twins again, but this time for a job, they had asked me to do some work for them taking photos and producing promo material (something I currently dabble in as a very small business) for a charity concert they are doing to raise money for their trip to work in an Albanian orphanage running music workshops in September. The concert is going to be at church in July and I will unfortunately be missing it due to
working.
After taking the photos at church and discussing requirements we headed to Derby for a monthly gig Sunday Night Live, that is put on in the Costa in the big shopping centre. This gig is organised by a group of people from a Derby church, one of which is a good friend of ours.
The music isn't always by people under the christian genre, but there is always a person being interviewed about a religious experience or event they are part of in between the two acts. They are always very interesting and talk about wonderful things. The two acts tonight all happened to be people younger than me and The Twins and are all friends of ours that we know through our old school and some of them the church too. The first girl was very nervous but played and sung beautifully. She played the guitar for most of it but also had a eukelele which made a great change for a couple of songs. The other band are an awesome four piece called Double Helix (they are on both Facebook and Twitter) who sung a mixture of their own material and a few covers. They performed brilliantly and were full of energy. The drummer is a very good friend of ours and all four of them are at our old school so it's great to support them.
After coming home I started some of the flyer and poster design for The Twins which I have emailed to them. Hopefully they will like the design etc and it can be full steam ahead for the rest of the work.
Tomorrow will mainly be spent at the hospital, which I am not looking forward to.
Until then, have a good day :)
