Jamestown Health & Rehab
The topic of the songs and discussion today was salvation at the assisted living facility.
The Holy Spirit was moving in that place and it was incredible!
People hearing the music and the discussion came in from outside the activity area just to listen. One was a nurse who stayed and joined in on the discussion, she knew more than we did and what a blessing she was!
We could not be happier that God gave us this opportunity to share this important message with everyone there. All of the residents were engaged and joined in the discussion.
Glory to God!
Jamestown Health & Rehab
What a blessing it was today to be able to share Jesus with the Assisted Living facility with inspiring song and Calvin led us in the explanation of The Lord's Prayer. What a powerful prayer it is! Many times when we say something over and over it becomes rote and we lose the meaning of what we are saying. How nice it was to share with the residents the meaning behind that prayer and to let them see it in a new light. We thank God for the opportunities He is giving us to share our passion for the Lord!

Commonwealth Assisted Living Worship
Serving others is an act Jesus taught us to do through many examples and is also greatly rewarding. What a blessing it is to give back to such a deserving population as those in a nursing home. Many of whom are unable to make it into a church and are so grateful to come worship every week. This event is lead up by one of the members in our Sunday school class who graciously has allowed us to join in the worship and spread the message of love with these wonderful people. We, and friends, are blessed to offer this to a wonderful and grateful community. This is a private event.

Church Family Member Birthday Party
We were blessed to be asked to provide the music for a church family member’s birthday party who lives in an assisted living facility and is no longer able to travel around. What a great time we all had having a sing-a-long to old hymns and a couple secular songs he particularly loved back in the day.
There were several other residents who attended the event that were singing along, toe tapping, and assisting with the maracas during all of the songs, including the hymns. How nice it was to see everyone singing to Jesus!
We also took the opportunity to share Jesus with everyone there. What a blessed and special day!
Church Family Member Fundraiser
We were so blessed to be able to provide the music for our church family member’s fundraising event for Powhatan Supervisor. She is unapologetically Christian and was completely fine with us playing both Christian and secular music. We do not normally play secular music but saw this as an opportunity to share Jesus with nonbelievers so we jumped on the opportunity.
It just so happened that Hurricane Erin was directly off the coast the same day as the event; however, to the percentage of souls that braved the weather, it was still a fun time with good music, wonderful food, and sharing Jesus with all who would listen!

We were blessed to assist our truly talented and God-fearing friends, David and Nita, in sharing their worship music and how important Jesus Christ is to our church’s Senior Luncheon.

We look forward to being able to continue to share and worship Christ with this group again!

Women’s Bible Study on Forgiveness
Lead my first women’s bible study on the topic of forgiveness at Smith Memorial Baptist Church. What a blessing that was and I am so grateful that we had a full house on such an important and hot topic subject. Jesus was the focus of the conversation.
To quote John Macaurthur:
Never are you more like Satan than when you want retaliation & never are you more like Jesus than when you forgive.

Palm Sunday Presentation
We were incredibly blessed to be able to play a special song to honor our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for this beautiful and historic church called Centurion Interdenominational Church, formerly Chapel of the Centurion in Hampton, VA. What a wonderful church and the congregation is amazing and gracious. The sermon was exactly what we needed to hear. We pray that God will have us all meet paths again!
Assisted Living Palm Sunday Performance & Presentation
What an honor to celebrate the start of Holy Week with such a deserving community. Palm Sunday is when Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey to fulfill the Old Testament prophecy and to start His salvation fulfillment for us all, palm leaves were laid down before His entrance, hence the name Palm Sunday. The following Friday, Good Friday, was the day Jesus Christ was crucified on the cross for our sins. Three days later, the following Sunday, Easter, is the day of Jesus’ glorious resurrection where He defeated death to be our way to salvation in order to enter eternity with Him and the Father in heaven.
Beautiful songs about the crucifixion and resurrection, along with touching video, as well as Davids’ teaching, were shared with all and a thankful day was had honoring our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ!

Jail Ministry Presentation
Serving a community in need.
What a blessed evening we had playing at this needed ministry fundraiser. God blessed us with the opportunity to sing Through It All by Andrea Crouch and He Paid a Debt He Did Not Owe. The testimonies were touching and inspiring. What incredible work goes into this ministry and is so needed. The volunteers perform a huge amount of work and help to allow this ministry to succeed. The testimonies showed exactly how much hope and love is given to a population that Jesus loves. We hope to remain involved with this ministry as long as possible.
Homeless Shelter
Serving those in need.
Our church partners with other surrounding churches to host the shelter one week a year during the colder months. What a blessing it is to serve a community in need. You meet some very nice people. God blessed us this year with the opportunity to play for this community and we are hoping to make it a regular event, God-willing.
