Sun in the morning

Pastoral Messages | June 21, 2017

When I was a senior in high school, I was part of the production of our school’s musical—Annie Get Your Gun. It’s a somewhat-whimsical story of the fictional sharpshooter Annie Oakley, taking place in the Wild West. I played flute in the pit orchestr…

Bridge builder

Pastoral Messages | May 31, 2017
