I have to tell you the whole story! I have actually been wanting a second acoustic guitar for about two years, but I’m afraid diapers have taken the priority in our budget. I love my Taylor, but it has been quite burdensome to take it back and forth between home and school constantly.
When I arrived at the Evening of Thanksgiving on Saturday night, I realized that I had completely forgotten I was supposed to bring my guitar for a special song. I saw the beautiful Chris Tomlin guitar on the auction table and pondered the idea of borrowing it from the highest bidder. However, I quickly decided that it was far too special and I had no business borrowing such a unique instrument from the fortunate winner. (Little did I know, that blessed individual would be me!) I raced home to get my guitar. However, I did not end up needing it! After Brent Reichard presented the Tomlin guitar on behalf of the third grade parents, I KNEW I could play it!
This Guitar Will Go to Good Use!
I am thrilled to have this guitar! I have been researching guitars and this Epiphone AJ-200 is EXACTLY the one I’ve had my eye on! Can you believe that? God amazes me! It’s new home will be my classroom at El Montecito School. My class was thrilled to see the guitar this morning. We sang “Your Grace is Enough” for the first of many times! I will use this guitar every day for worship with my class and every week at chapel. You will probably also see this guitar being used at SBCC and at special school events like the Christmas program and Extravaganza. I'm sure I will record with it and play it with bands. Lastly, it will also be used to teach others how to lead in worship. I am so grateful for this generous and thoughtful gift. Thank you so much!
