WKGMA Spring Convention

The Echoes enjoyed an evening of great Gospel singing, as we participated in the 2012 WKGMA Spring Convention.  The event, held once again at Trinity Baptist Church, in Paducah, KY, presented the Gospel of Jesus Christ as numerous soloists, trios and quartets sang during the evening.

The Convention has continued to grow through the years, with groups participating from Kentucky, Tennessee, Illinois and Indiana. 

With the large number of groups appearing, each set was limited to 10 minutes.  For our 10 minutes, the Echoes chose an established song and debuted a new song.  We started with "I Rest My Case At The Cross."  It's a song about the Intercessor each Christian has in Jesus Christ -- a powerful song which received a strong response from many in the congregation who no doubt have called on that Intercessor many times in their lives.

The second song was a new one for us, as we sang "When He Calls Us Away" for the first time in a concert setting.  This song looks toward the time when Jesus will return for the Church.  Once again, the message was well-received by the Bride present at the convention.

You might want to make plans to attend the 2012 WKGMA Fall convention, usually held during the first weekend in November.  You'll be sure to receive a blessing -- especially if you come prepared to receive one.
