Thanks for posting...I've sent this to friends in the US, Canada, China, Japan. Malaysia, Germany, and France. Unbelievably uplifting!

I shared this on Facebook last night and my wife and I put everything down to listen to it this morning. I only wish I had a recording of this with Dolby sound. I can't imagine what a powerful experience it must be to participate in an event like this.
