I have played as a volunteer worship leader for churches and a friend’s wedding but not for payment. I have recently created my own website and brochure to get started. I will share it here: paws-of-praise.org

I have never thought of them as a way to make money until I met you. Sounds like a good way to bless and be blessed in return. 🙏

Yes, it’s a good way to advertise. I also have a website and a brochure, which I intend to mail out to a few nursing homes and assisted living facilities, to introduce myself.

Hello Everyone, here is a short introduction of myself: I was a former school teacher for 23 years.. My background is in early education and business schools. - I hold a Master's Degree in Education specializing in online-training and have two certificates in Music Theory and Desktop Publishing from Boston School of Music. - I have experience teaching basic music theory, dance, and computers to students from kindergarten to 8th grade. I also taught secretarial courses part-time as a Business Instructor. - I have also been involved in church activities as a worship leader and soloist for about 10 years. - I have a passion for animals and have my own part-time pet sitting and grooming business for the past 15 years. - I have multiple YouTube channels dedicated to Hebrew, contemporary secular and worship songs. I also have a YouTube channel dedicated to Torah readings, and Hebrew songs. - My goal is to minister to the elderly and bring a little joy. - I play the piano, ukulele, basic harmonica, hand bells and the recorder. - I have not done any paid gigs yet. - My dream gig would involve building meaningful relationships with seniors, dedicating my time to making their days brighter. I want to create a warm and inviting atmosphere where I can bring joy and laughter into their lives. This could involve engaging in fun activities, organizing events that cater to their interests, or simply being a friendly companion to listen and share stories with. I envision a role where I can contribute to their emotional well-being, helping them feel valued and appreciated. In doing so, I would not only enhance their quality of life but also learn from their rich experiences and wisdom. Being a source of comfort and happiness for seniors would be profoundly fulfilling, and I’m passionate about dedicating my time and energy to nurture these connections. Miriam

I am practicing the song, “Don’t Worry Be Happy,” By Bobby McFerrin. Just recorded my first take last night. Needs a few more rounds, LOL!

@Chris Ekblom I record all my songs in video format.
