#bringbackourgirls

Special thanks to Scott in light of the recent tragedy in Nigeria.  

"...I was inspired this past week to do something in worship and it included your music. There was a UCC church in Maine that encouraged churches to pray daily beginning on Mother's Day until these girls are returned to their families. I accepted that challenge and made a presentation during worship sharing information about what had happened helping to frame it as modern day slavery and sharing a Biblical response of Jubilee as the song "There's a Better Day" from the Abolitionist Hymnal reminds us. We then prayed for these girls by first name, from a list that has been circulated on the internet. Then we reflected during our offering time as we listened to "There's a Better Day."

I wanted to share with you that the songs that you recoded on that album have facilitated my prayers and have been a source of my inspiration. Today I am sharing a link to the album with my congregation along with the encouragement to continue praying."
