Ken Garfield "Speech" to Samaritan House Anniversary Lunch

Ken Garfield Ken, That is absolutely wonderful. I look forward to reading it. I always enjoy your articles. We have had "Amazing Grace" as a subject in our Sunday School class at least 3 times in the last few months. I will put this email on our Blog and when available a link to your article; let me know if you want it removed. http://ownbeyss.blogspot.com/ don 3/5/09 ---- On 3/5/2010 9:58 AM, Garfield, Ken wrote: They wanted me to give a speech, I suggested instead that they pick a homeless person who stayed at Samaritan House and I would lead a conversation with him. It turns out the fellow was a concert violinist who had had a flourishing career in music until alcohol landed him on the street. He’s clean and sober now, and after our Interview in front of the crowd, he played Amazing Grace on his violin. I’m going to write about it for our church website…Ken ---- From: don Sent: Friday, March 05, 2010 9:56 AM To: Garfield, Ken Subject: Re: Don, I'm sorry I can't make it to Bible study today..... Thanks, we missed you . We had 8 folks there and at last minute (well Wednesday) our leader for the month had to cancel and I was the (less prepared) leader again. I know you did a good job at the Samaritan House Anniversary Lunch. Would love to have heard you, what was the subject? thanks, don ---------- On 3/4/2010 9:15 AM, Garfield, Ken wrote: I’m speaking at the Samaritan House anniversary lunch, that’s a home for homeless folks after they get out of the hospital…..See you next time, Ken
