Hey Hey there Encouragers! How are you holding up? I hope this 25th episode finds you well and figuring out new ways to work, worship, and serve others in these unprecedented times. Thank-you so much for all the kind words and comments on last weeks episode on technology and staying close to Jesus. If you have not listened to that yet-- I encourage you to go find that when you have the time. It was a ton of fun and I hope you can benefit from it. I have a special treat for you today. In this episode of the podcast, I hope you'll be inspired by the work my good friend Rex Broad and a few others have been working on. It's called the Dayspring Music Box! A tool that you might be able to give to a friend or loved one to help them pass the time while staying at home. Enjoy.
Today I want to share with you about a wonderful project I've been involved with for about a year. It's the Daypsring Music Ministry. Some of you may know, my mother in law is suffering from Alzheimer's disease and dementia. She is otherwise physically healthy and doing well, but we all are watching her slowly lose her memories and not be able to think the way she used to. Through it all, however, we have discovered that music is an amazing connector. My mother in law remembers these classic hymns and spiritual songs. She remembers and can sing right along. It's really amazing how we can connect with her through singing these melodies. It gives her comfort, calms her down, and we believe it helps her feel more like herself again. Not only can we share this great time together, but music has such a powerful effect on our minds, our hearts, and our souls. You're going to hear about a dream that my friend Rex had that started this whole thing, and I can tell you that I and my wife and father in law have lived that very dream, and we use our Dayspring Music box as much as we can. It's a tool in our tool box to help love and serve my mother in law. If you have anyone that could benefit from it-- I would encourage you to get one too.
The following is a rebroadcast of the "Our Community" radio program with Suzie Thomas
