A TAPESTRY OF PEACE


ABOUT A TAPESTRY OF PEACE

Listen as God's Word and music are woven together in these selections to provide a source of meditation, inspiration, comfort and peace. These portions of God's Word were selected and read by Sharolyn Sander, a member of Christ Lincoln. She enjoyed forty years as an educator and worship leader in several Lutheran Schools.

The concept for this CD developed as Phil Zielke, a teaching partner and friend battled cancer. He is now the founder and president of "Phil's Friends," a ministry of hope and healing for cancer patients and their loved ones. The original piano music was composed and played by John Strege, a music and worship leader at Trinity Lutheran Church, Roselle, Illinois. 

The Christ Lincoln "Cancer Care Ministry" gathers, packs, and delivers "Care Bags" of useful items, hope-filled Christian literature, and personal notes from Christ pastors and students. Recipients experience the Gospel message of peace, joy, and hope!
