Nate Wilson Family Gathering 2021

family portrait

The following recordings are not intended to be professional; they are real-life, complete with mistakes and the noises of grandchildren! We started each day with an impromptu music jam session (in which, unfortunately, the singers tended to stand further from the microphones than the instrumentalists, but perhaps you can sing along and make up for that!) followed by a message from one of our sons or sons-in-law. Each evening ended with Papa Nate's devotional reading. (Due to logistics, the devotional readings were not recorded live, but were recorded in a studio later.)
