Bringing Music to Guatemala...Handbell Style!

Just an update as the volunteer trip approaches:

A generous donor and friend of mine offered to pay for a set of children's handbells that I can take and leave in Guatemala at one of the orphanages.  These colored bells will hopefully be a great way to share my love of music and the joy of music with the children.  So, I will be tucking each of the 13 bells into my socks and carrying them in my suitcase to Guatemala!!  The program coordinators were thrilled about this creative activity I'll be able to introduce to the kids.

I plan on learning Guatemalan children's songs that I can transfer into music for the children to play.  Music has brought me so much happiness, and I can't wait to share that happiness in Guatemala!

I'll surely blog about this once I've introduced the bells to the kids at the orphanages.

Much love, and thanks again to ALL of my supporters and donors who are allowing me the honor of serving in this way.
