Music

12. I love music and to worship by singing is one of the highest things one can do. Of course, Holy Communion is the highest but to sing praises, prayers and love songs to our Father God has to reach his ears with all the love they are sent with. As long as I have been at Solid Rock you and your family has provided the best worship music we have had. Your depth of devotion comes through loud and clear and in that brings us deeper into worship. You pick a wide range of songs that most everyone can connect with. What a talent youo have and how blessed we are to have you and your family.God knows we need you. Thank you so much for all you do.

OUR CONGREGATION IS BLESSED TO HAVE JOHN AND MARILEE WELLS WORSHIP WITH US WHEN THEY ARE IN TOWN. THEY BOTH ENJOY SINGING GOD'S PRAISES, AND THEIR ENTHUSIASM TOUCHES OUR LIVES. THEY WILL BE WITH US THE NEXT FEW SUNDAY'S. JOHN AND I HAVE A SPECIAL "DINO KARTSONAKIS" PIANO DUET THAT WE ARE WORKING ON. DINO PERFORMS REGUALARLY IN BRANSON, MO; AND HAS WON 8 GOSPEL MUSIC ASSOCIATION DOVE AWARDS. HIS MUSIC IS BRILLIANT, DEMANDING ON THE PERFORMER, AND A BIT FABULOUS AND POWERFUL. JOHN AND I ARE WORKING ON AN ARRANGEMENT OF "THE BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC" FOR JULY 4TH. IF YOU LISTEN CLOSELY, YOU WILL HEAR RENDITIONS OF TCHAIKOVSHY'S 1812 OVERTURE. COME EARLY, TO HEAR THE PRELUDE, WHICH WILL BE LONGER THAN NORMAL ON THIS PATRIOTIC JULY 4TH. JOHN WILL ALSO BE JOINING ME IN MUSIC ON JUNE 20TH. HE WILL BE LEADING THE MUSIC ON JUNE 27TH, WHICH WILL GIVE ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO WITH MY HUSBAND DAVE, TO THE CHUCH HE PASTORS IN SEBRING.

GLORY, GLORY HALLELUJIA! GOD IS TRUTH, AND IS LEADING US ON!
