I Just Donated My Prized Keyboard

[Mrandrew]

I just donated my Fender Rhodes to a startup church that I attend. I know it may seem outdated, so is this still a good keyboard for the church?

Also no one plays and I have limited experince. I only know a few movements and a handful of songs, but would be more than willing if God chose to use me.

Just pray for me if the Pastor wants me to play.

That was a very generous gesture MrAndrew & other than the people, God knows your motives & desires & He'll bless you in abundance.
I think it's high time U started playing for a church MrAndrew..In the short time I've interacted with you, you've shown nothing but passion for music..


U'r definately on your way to new grounds

Thanks musallio. I've been attending bible study at this small church and it has helped me tremendously. I just wanted to give something to the church and since there was no keyboard I asked the pastor if he would accept the one I had gathering dust.

Man, be highly blessed..& continue to bless others in many ways 4 His Glory.
U know, right now it feels like U gave it to me (wouldn't have minded that of course )

Man it would be easier to send you the money. LOL! Shipping it would cost a bundle.

Some1 feels ultra-generous these days..lol

If it's shipping costs U'r concerned about, musallio can take care of those  (this reminds me of how I couldn't buy the other boards I was eyeing bcos they couldn't ship to my country )

What you did is a great thing........much respect on that.  That Rhodes is probaby worth some $$$$$$$$$$$$$$.  If the church will recognize it for what it is (not a piano, not an organ) than they'll be fine lol.

I dont think that was a good idea either.

To be honest, the rhodes is winding right back where it started, in the church. I brought it about 9 yrs. ago from a minister when I was living in D.C.

As far as it's worth not important to me. It's just hard letting go.
