2010 Survivor Service Rock of Ages



Some of you may not know that the teens at Almont are called Survivors. When a youth reaches the age of 13 (or the first year they attend Almont summer camp) teens get initiated as Survivors. Friday evening they attend a special Survivor candlelight worship service. It is always a very moving and touching experience for Survivors young and old, as well as the younger children, adults and parents of Survivors in attendance. This year Nina, SCYL President, opened the 2010 service with a duet of the hymn "Rock of Ages" with Survivor Advisor and professional singer, Tammara. Unfortunately I missed the beginning of this amazingly beautiful performance, but I did manage to catch the last minute on video. It is a dimly lite service and I was in the back of the chapel, so you won't see much and you'll need to turn the volume up to hear it. Nevertheless, since Tam and Nina have such wonderful voices it is certainly worth a listen. I just wish we had a better recording of this!
