Settled into nashville
Hi, Folks,
Man, I am so sorry that I don’t get news out more often. I get inspired when I have no time, and when I do have time, I often don’t find the inspiration. Pray for me!
It has been a year or more since last I posted news. We have settled into Nashville very comfortably. Many things about the attitudes and way of life in the South are still foreign to us, but we are thriving behind the slower pace, and the eased financial burden of living here.
We are involved in a great church. Our pastor is Lindell Cooley, who was the worship leader at the Brownsville AG, Pensacola, FL revival for many years. He is trying to build a church that will let the Holy Spirit breathe, and is an excellent and anointed worship leader. The church has been here a little over one year, and is growing slowly but steadily. We are discussing possibilities for ministering to the music community here in Nashville, and our church is already something of a “musician’s church”. (of course, I guess all churches in Nashville are to a degree.)
The worship project is not moving ahead yet, and for that I am remiss and truly sorry. It is waiting on the completion of our home overdub studio, which right now entails the building of a vocal booth, and the acquiring of an updated Mac computer. We are currently dealing with the passing of my wife Karen’s mother, but will probably be able to finish things up in early October. We will then be adding my daughter Alisa’s background vocals, and doing some additional instrumentation before mixing. Mixing will depend on the completion of my son-in-law’s full service studio, which is almost completed, but is still almost a year overdue.
After the completion of the worship project, I am looking forward to doing my first recording in 15 years using live players in the studio at one time. Hopefully we will be starting that in the first half of next year.
That’s about it. The web site will be undergoing a major face lift here very soon, and I am committed to keeping things more up to date. Pray for me that I don’t fold like a house of cards!
God bless you all and thanks as always for your tremendous moral support over the years.
