I've gone over the math for 2014. I am surprised, and very pleased . . .
I sang to 837 older adults in 2014 at the retirement/assisted living/memory care centers from January through the end of October. I did not sing in November due to illness and a bad back.
In December 2014, the 1st Church String Band performed at 8 venues and sang for a total of 510 people.
I also performed twice for the Be Our Guest Meal at our church in 2014, to about 280 people total (dinner attendees and volunteers.
And let's not forget VBS. I sang for VBS here at the church, as I have done for years in a row . . . to about 175+ people daily (children, youth volunteers and adult volunteers) for 5 days . . . that's 875.
I sang for Operation Fun, here at the church, about 6 times to 16 people (children and volunteers). That adds up to 96.
The numbers should all add up to 2,595 people I performed for this year, and I know I am missing a couple of gigs that aren't on my tally sheet for some reason.
Again, I am surprised, and very pleased. Hoping to sing to 3,000 people in 2015.
God's grace still amazes me . . . ><>
