Friday brought several meetings with staff and leadership revealing the opportunity to foster leadership in the area of worship. Effective corporate worship must begin with the Pastor. Encouragement of the worship leader is essential. The sessions with the pastors and the leadership were extremely productive and worthwhile. There was no resistance to change whatsoever as they hunger for a dynamic worship experience.

 

 The majority of Friday afternoon was spent with the music leader Melissa Gray. She was so very tolerant of our constant tardiness due to our wrong turns out on their version of the interstate. Taking advantage of the fantastic weather in Nova Scotia, Melissa waited in the sunshine while we returned to begin the worship leader’s session with her. She also rehearsed her violin solo for the offertory planned for Sunday morning.

After we completed Melissa’s worship leader’s session, Pastor Ian came to take us out to Peggy’s Cove which was a surreal experience for me. This brief window of opportunity to view the beauty of Nova Scotia has had a profound effect on my life. I have never experienced anything like it. At Peggy’s Cove, I came face to face with a lighthouse that I have dreamed of since I was child. On the way there we stopped to view the memorial to the lives lost on the Swiss Air 111 crash. The people of Peggy’s Cove and Halifax extended their hospitality to the influx of families that came there as a result of the accident.. The monument is one huge boulder split in half.
