Mother's Day Medley
Love Is Spoken Here, I Often Go Walking, & We'll Bring The World His Truth Sorry to disappoint, as this is pretty bare boned folks... but I changed the key to make them all pretty easy for primary pianists to learn quickly. Now let's cross our fingers that the kids will too. :) Having them flow together also takes out the pause between songs, which often leads to distracted littles in front of the congregation. Hope this helps! -Shavonne UPDATE : Click HERE to download a PDF version of the…

People were grinning as they recognized how different they were in their learning styles from their neighbor. Then came the question: if we are so different from each other in how we learn best…
