In the
world of keyboard music, there are those who take lessons,
practice all their lives, and still struggle to play their
instrument. Then there is Melanie Bowie who, before she actually
had many formal music lessons, already had the "gift"
of making music. Dr. Bill Cargo refers to Melanie as a "musical
genius" and those of us who know her, wholeheartedly
agree.
Melanie
began piano lessons at age 5 and was drafted into service
by the Shoreline Players at age 10. On September 14th, we
will be the recipients of her amazing gift when she steps
to the keyboard.. She will be playing an eclectic program
including: Virgil Fox's arrangement of Now Thank We
All Our God, Widor's Toccata, and Scott
Joplin pleasers.
Recently,
Melanie said that this is a "great honor" for her.
She has never given a concert before - and LUCKY FOR US -
this premiere event is being held here, at TAPC. Playing our
beautiful Allen organ and Horugal grand piano, you can be
sure it will be an evening you won't want to miss. And, don't
let your friends miss it, either.

SUNDAY
SCHOOL RESUMES - SUNDAY, SEPT 9TH 
On
Sunday, September 16th, immediately following
Worship, the various ministries of our Church will be displayed
around the new Parlor. Committee members will be on hand to
"show and tell" about their committee's work. The
Fellowship Committee will offer beverages in the Servery, and
we hope you will make the rounds and express your appreciation
for the work being done. Perhaps YOU might even be inspired
to offer your help.
