Our Jazz Mass on Sunday was another great occasion, this time with the talented Double A Jazz Band. The church rocked with the music and the wonderful gospel songs with their compelling rhythm and strong messages brought back memories of younger days and sent us out dancing.
In the sermon I used a quote from American Poet Maya Angelou
My life has been one great big joke,
a dance that’s walked,
a song that’s spoke,
I laugh so hard I almost choke
when I think about myself.

We had a wonderful trip to Lake Mungo on Friday 10th April. It was a perfect autumn day, and we travelled through amazing country. The photo shows us at the Great Wall of China, which is actually the lunette of the lake and contained the skeletal remains of Mungo Man and Mungo woman which put Lake Mungo on the map. It was a real treat to explore the rich history of this ancient land in such a way.
