Great Time In Ripley

Sunday, May 17th, 2009

Every now and then you have an absolutely perfect day.  Today, no this weekend was one of those times.  We sang at Lowry Methodist Church in Ripley, MS today and we have never been made to feel more welcome anywhere.  It was their homecoming, and did they ever have a good turn out.  A full house, great preaching, more food than three churches could eat, and a very receptive congregation for us to sing to.  What more can you ask for?  How about the friendliest people you’ve ever met?  That’s what we ran smack in the middle of.  Thank you all for your hospitality.

Next, when we get back home, our son Curtis accepts the position of Business Manager for Heavenly Journey.  Wow, is this going to help out!  There just aren’t enough hours in the day for us to do everything needed and take care of group business properly.  Welcome aboard Curtis, get ready for work.  So, if you are interested in having Heavenly Journey come sing, you may be speaking to Curtis initially.  We will be putting him to work very soon sorting out our e-mail addresses and putting together a news letter.

The Mississippi Gospel Jubilee is almost upon us.  The plans are all coming together.  The talent has been booked for what seems ages.  The Jubilee will be held at the Attala Co.
