THE BAND PLAYED ON

Years ago, the ASAPH Brass Band would shut down while I was away. They would rehearse, but nothing more. 

Now, the band receives invitations, responds, plans, travels, plays, and does all of the things necessary to keep the band playing. The five-member committee along with an mature assistant director are leading the band forward...along with ASAPH's assistant administrator and administrative secretary. 

Last weekend, the band played at the opening service for a church conference. TV cameras were there. The scene was quite attractive, from my point of view watching online. There were many fine singing groups. The ASAPH Brass Band offered a song as well..."I BELIEVE". 

On Sunday, they played for another event.

There are still struggles. The band was slated to play the theme song for ASAPH's anniversary celebration last night. That never happened. 

In general, however, it is a great feeling to see the band playing on their own while I am here in the USA.  That can't happen without good leadership.  Pray for the band and its leaders.  

We want the band to SOUND the JOY of the Lord to people in a tired, dark, gloomy place.
