Well, now that was a great evening of singing! The Echoes enjoyed singing for the folks at Belleview Methodist Church, in Smith Mills, Kentucky. Pastor Freda Alexander and her congregation made us feel very welcome, as we made this somewhat rare Sunday evening engagement.
We don't normally sing on Sunday mornings or nights, as Twila is the sole pianist for Calvary Baptist Church, where husband Mark pastors. But on this night, the folks at Calvary Baptist did their singing acapella, and the Echoes offered our three-part harmony to present the Message that God had for the folks at Belleview.
At the beginning of the service, David reminded people to listen to the words of the songs and receive the message that each song provided. The smiles on faces and enthusiastic applause for the songs was a good indication that indeed messages were being received.
Everyone also enjoyed the "finger-food" fellowship following the service, too. And Pastor Freda said that we would undoubtedly be asked to do it all again sometime before too long.
This year marks 40 years that David has been offering the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the Echoes from Calvary. It has been 39 years for Sharon and 27 years for Twila. So, singing for Christ has occupied a significant portion of each of our lives. But the blessings just keep getting better and better. It would be great to sing until Jesus returns.
