| | On a gentle Sunday evening of this past weekend, a small group gathered
to share some food, bid on some Silent Auction items, and to hear music
from several talented performers. For those who were able to
attend, it was an enjoyable evening.
The evening began with a couple of opening acts: some guy with a big
head and a few songs (cheered on by his wife and their beautiful
daughter Sophia), and then the supremely talented Mike Yoo sharing a
couple of songs with keyboard. Mike has been blessed with
God-given talents evident when he runs his hands across the keys (as
well as when he opens up medical school textbooks). After Mike,
the Fu brothers, Jacob and Joshua, shared a set of originals and covers
of various tunes from places as far away as Scandanavia. The two
were in harmony on guitar as well as vocals, showing that they are
brothers not only in blood but also in heart for music and for the
Lord. Finally, Stan Sonu shared music ranging from his high
school compositions to his current projects, all of which demonstrated
the talent and passion God has given him for music, for
people, and for the Lord. One of his last numbers was about a
girl from his past,
which begs the question: is there a girl in his present? Just
kidding. Maybe. As I sat there listening to the final song,
I felt it poetic and just that both the first song of the night and the
last song of the night contained the line: "It's all about you, Jesus" (Jesus, Lover of My Soul and The Heart of Worship). Amen.
The coffee was (really) good and the desserts and snacks were
sweet! Thanks to all who contributed to and particpated in the
Silent Auction. We raised a nice sum for missions and hope that
you were all blessed. I and others commented that we are looking
forward to the next time we have a Coffee House, whether at NCA or
elsewhere. God has blessed so many with talent to share, as well
as the love which binds us all together in His name.
