A Surprise Visitor

We always enjoy seeing Father Dan, and today was no different. This morning, as we were completing an activity, who should show up with his guitar in hand but Father Dan!

The children were beside themselves and piled onto the mat for a sing-a-long! Father Dan led us in several songs. He let us know that he is playing the music at the upcoming Saturday night 5pm mass. Today he played the songs we would hear if we were lucky enough to be at that mass.

One favourite was Awesome God. The chorus reminds us of God's greatness and His love for us. We are experts at the actions! Check us out!

Our God is an AWESOME God!

He reigns from heaven above,

With wisdom, power and love,

Our God is an AWESOME God!

Another favourite song was Sanctuary. Here is a little clip of the children singing along with Father Dan.

Lord prepare me,

To be a sanctuary,

Pure and holy,

Tried and true,

With thanksgiving,

I'll be a living,

Sanctuary for You.

Thank you, Father Dan, for taking the time to visit us and share your gift of music! The children love when you visit. These visits help connect our school with our church and are so important in the faith lives of our children.

Perhaps some of us will even see Father Dan at 5:00 mass this Saturday!
