Exchanges
'I am an organist at a small Lutheran church in Fort Worth, Texas (40 minutes west of Dallas). My family and I are seeking a organ/house swap this summer. Organ duties are very limited during the summer, often just Sunday mornings are required. I am a choir director, organist and pianist and we have a 3 bedroom home in the little town of Aledo and are looking for an adventure for as little as a week or as much as a month in July. If you fancy some time in Texas this summer and have an organ/choir position and a home we could trade for a spell, please contact me. We'd love to swap with someone in England, but even someplace close to our home would be a fun adventure. We'd entertain anything for the opportunity to travel and share music somewhere new for a time. I can be reached at organswap@hansgrim.com.'
