Hello Gospel Music Friends,

 

We are packing and getting ready to head out to the "Fall Gospel Jubilee" in Waldo, FL for this weekend!  This is one of our funnest weekends of the year that we look forward to.  If you haven't made plans yet, there's still room for you!  There's over 300 campsites with hookups directly on the grounds, and the Waldo Inn & Suites (formerly Sleep Inn) is located next door.  We have a tremendous lineup for the weekend featuring Brian Free & Assurance, LeFevre Quartet, Josh & Ashley Franks, Chuck Wagon Gang, Freemans, Singing Echoes, Perrys, Old Paths Quartet, Browders, Guardians, Debbie Domer, Gail Boyce, and more!  Tickets can be purchased at the gate upon arrival.  The sing is held under an open-air, covered pavilion.  Bring lawn chairs for seating.  And by the way, the weather forecast is absolutely perfect for this weekend!  Check out the flyer at the end of this email for this weekend's complete schedule - including the "Early Bird Night" on Wednesday.

In closing, let me remind you that the phones continue to ring every day for the "2015 Winter Gospel Music Convention" on February 2-7 at the Bradenton Area Convention Center in Palmetto, FL.  There are only a few Booster Club seats left, and the VIP Reserved seats are going very strong as well.  Whether you are coming for the entire week or just specific nights, I would encourage you to go ahead and call for your tickets.  This year definitely looks like our biggest year to date.  An updated flyer is attached at the bottom of this email.  For tickets, camping, or hotel accommodations, call (941) 756-6942.

 

Thank you for your friendship, love, prayers, and continued support.  Our family appreciates you more than you'll ever know, and we are forever grateful for each one of you.  Hope to see many of you this weekend in Waldo.

P.S.  Happy Gospel Church will celebrate our 40th church anniversary in November.  Although we are celebrating the entire month, we are particularly excited to have the Isaacs as our very special guests on Sunday night, November 9th at 6pm.  In order to accommodate the large crowd expected, this special evening with the Isaacs will be held at our new campus, Happy Gospel Church @The Ranch (5215 Lorraine Road - Bradenton, FL 34211).  Please make a note of this, and share with your friends and neighbors.
