Organ Recipient


We got a new piece of furniture on Saturday.
It's an old organ that our church used to use, but no longer has a need for.
And it was going to be thrown in the dumpster because it was in the way of a new renovation project. And someone had ripped the insides out of it years ago, so it cannot be played.
Evan heard about the demise of this organ and told the folks at church to hold off.
He might know someone that would be interested in giving it a home instead of throwing it in the trash.
And he was right!
I love my new old organ.
It is beautiful. Real wood. Full of history. A work of true craftsmanship.
It now resides in our dining room.
And it brings me joy.
Because it has a past, was moments from the dump, and was saved at the last moment.
Kinda how I feel.
