Seattle Mennonite Church and Beyond

The Seattle Mennonite performance was a great success. The very hospitable congregation was extremely delightful and incredibly friendly. I had the extreme delight of staying with the wonderful and welcoming Rob and Lee Murray, along with another tour member, Andrew Mark. I personally spent a great deal of time conversing with one of my host parents, Rob, about our musical interests. The conversation covered a wide variety of topics among music and even led to conversation about local coffeehouse culture and music venues. In the morning, over breakfast we talked about a variety of things including personal goals, heritage, as well as other interests. It's likely that I'll maintain contact with this family. There were connections made and interests shared.

The tour is off to a great start, with a great first performance, a great night's rest with wonderful people, and a great time had in the city of Seattle, WA. There is already a great spirit of comraderie on the trip thus far, and we only seem to be knitting closer and closer together. We were charged with, “Go West Young Men” and West we've gone. We have great hopes lying ahead, and will continue to spread our joy about.
