Aurora Fall Festival

Although this weekend started out with widespread rain showers, the Aurora Fall Festival was still "on." So the Echoes motored from our respective homes to Aurora, Kentucky, for an "after parade" singing engagement.

The Aurora Baptist Church, located on the main "drag" through Aurora, which doubles as the parade route, has for a number of years sponsored a Gospel Singing and a food booth as a mission outreach.  And the Echoes have been blessed to be asked to participate for a good number of consecutive years.

The rain stayed away, and the sun even came out for part of our time on the stage.

We always stand on the back of a big trailer on the church parking lot, singing to those who may be sitting at tables eating or perhaps just walking or driving by the event.  We faithfully present the Gospel of Jesus Christ in song, which is our mission, and then we turn the planted seeds over to God to do with as He pleases.  We'll probably never know our impact until we get to Heaven, but as long as we're doing what God directs, we don't have to worry about those details.

Thanks once again, Aurora Baptist, for including us in your mission work.
