I like both Enya and Maire, honestly. Yes, her stuff is more overtly Christian, but I have to tell you, both sisters have music that sounds incredible amounts alike.
I'm actually in Northwest Missouri. We get snow. Not as often as, oh, let's say Boston or NYC or Minnesota, but yes, we get snow. And ice. And slush. And all of the above.
I grew up Presbyterian, so the whole giving up for Lent wasn't highly encouraged. My family now attends a Charismatic Protestant church, and it's still not heavily encouraged, but it's not discouraged, either. My mother was a Catholic for ten years, and both my brother and I were baptised as such, and going to a university with a high Catholic percentage in a Catholic part of the state, it's quite the trickle-down effect. Personally, I think the Great Schism is starting to heal. And that makes me happy.
