Hi everyone! Well, day 3, concert 3, and another amazing evening with folks that are so kind, affirming and bought a whack of cds! Tonight we had our cd release concert at Douglas Mennonite in Winnipeg. We think about 325 people came. They enjoyed the most amazing array of tortes, hummous, and other goodies! The organizers, bakers, setterr-uppers, and taker-downers were incredible, just as in Brandon and Morden. And then there were the musicians...this evening we had the great pleasure of having on stage with us Joey Penner on bass, John Paul Peters on key board, violin and electric guitar, Jonny Guenter on viola, mandolin and vocals, Julia Kasdorf on vocals, and Clare Schellenberg on banjo and vocals. What a treat it was to sing with them and enjoy the amazing music they made!

Grace Mennonite in Brandon, Morden Mennonite, Douglas Mennonite...thank you to everyone who organized the events and hosted us so well. We are grateful and humbled by the support and welcome and affirmation of our music. And what is most gratifying is the money that is being raised for people like Joseph to continue the amazing work that they are doing.

Tomorrow Steinbach!

Thanks everyone!

Kim
