Let there be light

Earlier this evening I attended a music workshop, the third in a series of eight workshops intended to teach members of church choirs to read music. Since I can read music fairly well I didn't really need to attend but the resource person eventually realized that he needed someone to play the keyboard during vocalization exercises. So I showed up with my keyboard tonight. Unfortunately, just as the opening prayers were being said, the lights went out! In order to kill time while waiting for power to be restored, we had breathing exercises and vocalized (without the keyboard, of course). But because the power wasn't back yet an hour later, the resource person announced that he would hold the workshop proper next week instead, and then he proceeded to lead the closing prayers. Just as he pronounced "Amen" the lights turned on!
