Work This Weekend

We are still proofing the ByGod'sGrace site, but we are much closer to getting it LIVE.

I could have never imagined the impact the movie, "White Christmas," was going to have on me this year. I decided to record "Counting Your Blessings" by Bing Crosby, and then I decided to do a whole CD of songs of that genre, only to have a major Jazz producer come along (through a friend of mine who told him about my singing) who is going to consider producing the songs for this new project. Well, I sure have been happy today singing "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter." These songs are not hard at all for me to sing. Though it will take a lot of work, once it is done, I can honestly sing them in my sleep, and the project could help fund LTW as we are continuing to grow to new locations. Other than singing the hymns, I have never felt more naturally singing songs than these beautiful songs like "Chattanooga Choo Choo"...I am also including "The Lord's Prayer" and "He Looked Beyond My Fault" on the project.

I am working from Knoxville, TN, as I have my computer and mail outs to send on Monday prepared. On Monday I am shipping all the copies of the music CDs I had made to send to the inmates at Angola and Hunt and LCIW prisons in Louisiana. Tuesday I have a radio interview with Linda Harvey, and I will be sharing about how God is at work in these prisons in Louisiana. I will be telling about our outreach scheduled to begin at Louisiana State Penitentiary in 2011.

We are working on a video for You Tube for the audio of me sharing my testimony at Valley Grove Baptist last September.

My dad's Christmas party for his company is coming up next week, and I am singing some Christmas carols and hymns, I look forward to it.

The bookkeeper is working while I am away, and my next project will be a "thank you" gift project to everyone who made a donation to LTW in 2010. I will be sending out some materials for witnessing to Mormons, since Mormonism is growing so rapidly in this country, and I will also send out copies of my testimony on CD from Valley Grove Bapt. (posted previously on this blog) to THANK everyone for giving to this ministry.

Money has been wired to Pakistan for two cases of Bibles, and 600 tracts from http://www.chick.com/ in Urdu have been sent to that table outreach location.

We are working on posting "Kenya" on the LTW web site.
