And He Decided To Join Us

Sometimes things happen and they surprise everyone. As I held my Sunday service in the main street of our western town, we had a quite a few visitors who had come along. Some of them had dogs and one had a beautiful Husky. As we began to sing our first hymn, All Things Bright and Beautiful the Husky decided to join us in the choruses. It was the first time I’ve had one of the creatures great and small join us in our service. He sang or howled his heart out along with us all. He didn’t sing in the verses they were left to us, only the choruses were his treat. He thoroughly enjoyed himself and his presence was an uplifting treat. He became an instant celebrity and when the service was over, he was dry from all the singing he had done. His reward for his efforts was a large bowl of refreshing cool water. 28 September 2009 Author’s note: This story is true and happened on Sunday 27 September 2009 at my end of season service. The Husky stole the service, he seemed to like the choruses as it was not the only hymn he joined in.
