September 11th
We are here in Tallinn again, spending the weekend at the Kopli Corps. It is the Estonia Regional Rally, with special guests from THQ in Finland and also from South Africa (our partner-in-mission territory)!
So of course it is 9/11 (11.9 here, but you know what I mean!) and the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks have been in the back of my mind all day, along with the recent terrorist attack at a school in Russia.
It was quite a thrill to play my horn in an open-air meeting in the Town Hall Square here, with Salvationist bandsmen from:
America
Estonia
Finland
Denmark
South Africa
Australia
Canada
England
Scotland
The kids performed some of the songs and dances they learned at music camp last month.
It is hard for me to put into words how we felt as we did things that we have dreamed about for years!
It is late here and I need to try to get some sleep, as we have three meetings tomorrow (after four meetings today!).
109 countries. And counting. We are the world!
