I wish I could have watched the video.  I am the Music Director at a Lutheran Church in FL and we also do handbells. I also play tenor with a small band and it would have been interesting to hear and see what they did.

This is a very touching story . When we OFFER our talents to assist others , the BLESSINGS we receive from above far surpasses any monetary values we would have gained . These musicians have my respect .
