Back To Alaska

Thanks to all of you who were praying for our Trip to Alaska. We had a wonderful week of services. We serve a mighty God!!

We saw it in the life changing power of the Gospel and also in His magnificent creation around us.

Outdoor Concerts

Worshiping God outdoors!! We thought we would share with you a couple of the events this summer and fall that have been held outdoors. When we were in New Mexico, First Baptist Church Farmington held a concert at Lions Wilderness Park. It was a beautiful setting overlooking Farmington, with striking views of the clear blue sky and the city below. In Centerville Ohio, Washington Heights Baptist Church, had a concert and picnic at Stubbs Park. The weather was perfect and we had a great time of worship. Before the concert started, a huge barbeque grill was setup directly in front of our bus, and the compelling aroma of grilling hamburgers and chicken reminded us to not get carried away with the concert.

Our Best Christmas Tour

Twas one month before Christmas
And all through This Hope
Every singer was ready
Even baritone Bope

Thanksgiving was over
As Christmas awaits
For 24 concerts
In 9 different states...

Well you get the idea. Thank you to all who came out to hear us over Christmas. We've never had a better turn out. The tour went well, and we had the privilege of seeing many come to Christ. It was good to see friends and family in Alaska and to sing in our home church up there. We hope you and your family were able to celebrate our Lord's birth and enjoy the season. We hope to see you down the road sometime in this new year!
