Yorokobi (Joy) of Yokkaichi Zion Church, made a visit concert to a special elderly nursing home “Shiori No Sato ” in Tsu City. It was a privileged environment since all-aspects facility is in a ground of 33,000 square meters. Most of those, who chose voluntarily to gather saying,”It’s the first time to listen to Gospel music,” were on wheel chairs, and the organizer also was frightened to know ,”It was the first time 50 people gathered, too.” Before it started, we were waiting everyone would gather while Sister D was playing “Eiko arawashi tamae (God, Manifest Your Glory)” on a harmonica. We sang 7 praise songs from “Kazeno hibaki (Sound of Wind) “songbook and “Yasuragi (Peaceful) Songs” songbook like “Yorokobo (Let’s rejoice)” “Subete wa ekini naru (Everything is working for our good)” Some of staff members were crying from the beginning, but most of them were eighties and nineties. While they looked hard, a 91 age woman was very healthy, was glad with being half-crying and singing. It impressed us so much. Being glad to say,”It was great……we are so impressed to see such a reflection,” wonderful bouquet flowers were presented at last.
