Last week we had a treat at EAST's chapel.
Musician extraordinaire Alvaro Sanchez visited us and led us in worship, performed, and shared about his journey of faith.
Alvaro, a native of Columbia, has played the guitar literally before kings and authorities, including the Queen of England and President Nathan at our very own Istana.
Five years ago, he gave up a promising career in music to answer God's call to Singapore--to perform, share his music, and teach about 'true worship'.
It was such a joy watching the maestro handle his guitar and harp--effortlessly.
Yes, the harp--"If you want to go to heaven, you must enjoy the harp" he quipped--such heavenly music it produces.
While everyone enjoyed the mini-concert, it was his sharing about what it means to truly worship God that touched our hearts.
"Every day we see, hear, and feel things that are filthy in the world," the father of two shared, "it is in worshipping God daily, coming before Him face to face, that we find purity and cleansing."
PS: Alvaro will conduct music seminars at EAST in the near future.
