2. What happened last month?
.

.
The aloha spirit of love, laughter and lyrics blended together Monday evening, April 20, as His Voice sang at the Nazarene Primetime Retreat in the legendary resort at Murrieta Hot Springs. The beauty of lakes and fountains, shade trees and winding paths, was a perfect backdrop for the senior retreat's Hawaiian theme on opening night. His Voice Director Mike Naluai, a Hawaiian, lead the concert with home-town favorites like “Little Grass Shack” and continued with many of their “Written in Red” CD favorites. The concert began with tropical strings and happy voices and ended with laughter and prayer. CONCERT PHOTOS of our April trip to Murrieta Hot Springs can be viewed at http://www.hisvoicenews.blogspot.com/

4. WWBD: What would bees do?
.


.
When I was growing up, my little brother Steve and I used to imagine ourselves as missionaries helping folks in some foreign land far away from our intercity neighborhood. Loud and clear I’d encourage unsuspecting Steve to sing our made-up song, "You be the missionary, I'll be the nurse, we'll work together to make God first." Steve graduated from college but didn't make it to his first missionary assignment of teaching elementary students as he and his bride Sharilyn died in a tragic car accident. I didn't understand how these two young adult lives could be snuffed out when they had so much to offer. Besides that, only the nurse in our childhood dreams was left and I already knew I'd never make it as a professional nurse and what good could one person do anyway? Someone else could be a missionary and bless folks in far away places.
.
That's what I thought until the other day when I read about bees. Since my first taste of honeycomb I've been a fan of honey bees and just knew these little guys with wings were cool. I was surprised to learn that when it gets too hot in a hive, a group of worker bees all face in one direction, anchor themselves to the floor, and fan their wings rapidly. One bee alone couldn't make much of a difference, but a lot of bees can produce an air current strong enough to draw fresh, cool air into the hive and blow the stale air out. Wow, I thought, if a group of bees working together could activate a healing current that changes everything for the better, maybe a group of men like His Voice could, too. Perhaps to the bees and thee, this is a mission breeze!
