After the First United Methodist Church in Clermont disaffiliated we have been attending Community of Faith UMC in Davenport. Sunday, February 4th, they had the Sunsations steel drum band perform during the service.
It is a group of seniors from Apollo Park, a campground close to where we live. The group is made up women and a few men. One of the woman belongs to the church.
They put a little concert on before and after the service.
It gave me a whole new appreciation of steel drum music.
Playing hymns on steel drums.
On March 9th I attended Community of Faith's 12th Annual Women's Retreat at Warren Willis Camp in Fruitland Park. 36 ladies were there. The theme was Creation Care. Tracey and Sandra lead the singing- God of Wonders, This is my Father's World and many others.
Sara Nussel was the guest speaker. She goes by the name of Eco Gal. We learned a lot about taking care of the creation; how to compost, green products to use.
She had been a music director and has written songs and musicals.
The day was full with line dancing (I taught) prayer walk, birdhouse painting, Bible study and Communion. It was an excellent retreat.
