Lastly, last Sunday at my church we had a special guest for the service, musician David Wells (No, not the Padres pitcher by any means! This guy is a Christian, half the size of the pitcher, and has kind of long hair) He plays jazz on the flugelhorn (a big trumpet) and trumpet and has been described as a Christian Kenny G. It's a neat, but different sound. Here's his website to hear his music: http://www.davidwellsonline.com/.
