The Echoes returned to Azotus Church, south of Bay City, Illinois, for our annual participation in Azotus' once-a-year worship service. We've been singing at the Azotus annual homecoming every year now on the 4th Sunday of August, since the early 1970's.
The church no longer even has electricity, and thus we've always had to take a generator to power our sound equipment. Last year, we found an inexpensive power inverter, which allows us to run our equipment off a vehicle battery. That makes it real simple.
Twila's husband, Mark Staton, delivered the message at the morning worship service. Then, tables were lined up outside under a gigantic oak tree, where an abundant spread of food provided a delicious "dinner on the grounds" for lunch. Then, the Echoes presented the ever-same Gospel of Jesus Christ in song, standing under that same gigantic oak tree, to those gathered around.
Azotus is a standing invitation for the Echoes each year, so if the Lord tarries, we'll probably be back again next year to do it all again, on the 4th Sunday of August.
