Chronicles Of Narnia Prince Caspian Movie

This Is Home

I've got my memories
They're always
Inside of me
But I can't go back
Back to how it was
I believe now
I've seen too much
But I can't go back
Back to how it was
Created for a place
I've never known

Chorus:
This is home
Now I'm finally
Where I belong
Where I belong
Yeah, this is home
I've been searching
For a place of my own
Now I've found it
Maybe this is home
Yeah, this is home

Belief over misery
I've seen the enemy
And I won't go back
Back to how it was
And I got my heart
Set on
What happens next
I got my eyes wide
It's not over yet
We are miracles
And we're not alone

(Chorus)

And now after all
My searching
After all my questions
I'm gonna call it home
I got a brand new mindset
I can finally see
The sunset
I'm gonna call it home

(Chorus)

Now I know
Yeah, this is home

I've come too far
Now I won't go back
This is home

Okay, folks. This is my very first ever try at this sort of thing.  After many hours of editing, trial and error, I think it's almost okay to watch. The format (SoundSlides) won't let me put it up on YouTube, so you'll have to view my "baby" production on this WebNG site.

So - without further adieu - here's "Man in Black" - a tribute to all the men in black we know and love so well.

Man in Black          To read the captions/lyrics of the song as you watch, click on the bottom right hand side of the media screen where it says, of all things, "Captions."

Let me know what you all think, okay?  Our Parish website (which tells about activities at which these photos were taken) can be found at: www.stgeorgepantry.org

Photo: The "Hermit Elder" - a Sage on "Little Mount Athos" - came out to talk to the young people after they boated

over to the holy island.

St. Peter the Aleut Orthodox Summer Camp, a Pan-Orthodox Christian Summer Camp, held in June/July 2008 at the YMCA Camp in Possum Kingdom Lake in North Texas. Clergy Chaplains were Fr. John Anderson, of St. Seraphim's Orthodox Cathedral in Dallas, Texas and Fr. Antonio Perdomo, of St. George's Orthodox Church in Pharr, Texas. In addition to daily prayers and various liturgical services, there were many fun activities throughout the week. These included archery, sailing, riflry, canoeing, swimming, some very puzzling craft projects, blobbing, horseback riding and a ride out to what has been dubbed as, "Little Mount Athos Island" where a wise old sage, a hermit of the mountain, came out and spoke to the young people. The week was sprinkled with spiritual topic sessions. This year's topic was on relationships: between friends, family, courtship and marriage. Nightly campfire question and answer discussions also took place with the older youth, young adults and clergy. The week ended with a talent show and some truly - amazing - skits and musical presentations. Before everyone left, each camper received an "award" for that which they contributed to this year's camp experience. After the obligatory group photos, all were sad to leave. Until next year... enjoy the photos.

All of the photos we have from the St. Peter the Aleut Orthodox Summer Camp can be viewed at:

P.S.  Just a Musical Hint: I found that it's really nice watching the photos as a slide show while listening to Aaron Copeland's "Fanfare for the Common Man" and then "The Rodeo Ballet", "Billy the Kid", "Appalachian Spring" et all...
