It's Concert Time Again!

The crowd gathering at the Red Barn in Clewiston, 2012

We are excited to be heading out to do the concert part of our ministry again! Why do I phrase it that way, you ask? Because there are more parts to the Trust Quartet ministry than doing concerts. Because of the distance that separates our residences, we have to work to coordinate our time for rehearsals. Even though we've been away from the concert schedule, our rehearsals have continued. In fact, the rehearsals are even more vital when we're not singing concerts during a particular stretch of time.

Since we've been working on the new CD, Going Home, there have been other bits and pieces of work that has had to be done for that. There's a reason Trust Quartet is listed as 'Executive Producers' on the credits! The coordination of the layout, design, choosing photos, order of songs, approval of proofs ~ the list could go on ~ requires us being in the same room to look over these things.

And because we're a family, and families celebrate together at Christmas, we've also done a little bit of that. It has been good to just be able to get together and fellowship without having to worry ourselves with a rehearsal or quartet business. Although to be sure, quartet business came up when we got together in Vero for some awesome chicken noodle soup (thank you, Robin!!!!), we were able to just relax a little bit and have some fun together. OK, so we pretty much have fun whenever we're together, but you get the idea.

Please do remember to keep Trust Quartet in your prayers as we begin this season of our concert ministry. Many miles are traveled along these roads going from place to place and we have been so blessed thus far and we know and acknowledge it is God's providential hand upon us. May God bless you for your continued prayerful interest in our ministry. It certainly does not go unnoticed!

Going Home - Order Yours Today!

Congratulations to Brenda L. in Georgia for being the first person to respond and order a copy of Going Home! In fact, she put her order in for two CDs, and we're glad to be shipping those out to her! Mary T. here in Florida stopped by where I work and picked hers up this morning. If you want to be among the first to get your copy, you might want to get in on the action ~~ NOW! 

While I may be writing a bit light-hearted about that, I'm very serious in that you need to get your order in now so we can get it shipped out to you as quickly as possible. They'd make great Christmas gifts, but if you want to do that, you REALLY need to get your order in now.

The CDs are $15 each and if you need it shipped to you, please add $2.50 for shipping / handling costs. There are a couple of different ways to do that. You can mail a check to P. O. Box 386 Okeechobee, FL 34973 or phone us at 863-634-8793. If you'd prefer to do it the online way, simply click here to our website order form and let us know what you need.

Song titles include: 

How Long Has It Been

Ransomed and Redeemed

It's Almost Over

Testimony

God Knows How Much Mercy I Need

I Want To Know

I Believe

Hide Thou Me

We Shall See Jesus

Treasures Unseen

Exciting News!!!

I've been debating whether or not to post this here yet, but the excitement is too much! The latest recording project, Going Home, is finally available for you to purchase! The shipment has arrived to our offices in Okeechobee and we can now begin processing your orders.

The only reason I debated announcing it now is just that I don't have any pictures to post here yet. I will get it scanned and uploaded both to this blog site as well as our website in the next day or so. The CDs are $15 plus $2.50 S/H. Checks can be made out to Trust Quartet and as soon as we receive your check with an address telling us where to ship it, we'll get it out to you.

If you see on our schedule that we're going to be somewhere near you soon and you would prefer to wait til a concert, we are able to take your credit card at our product table now.

Included on this album are songs like Hide Thou Me and Treasures Unseen. If you've heard Rhonda do these in concert, just wait til you hear it here! She does such an awesome job on these two songs ~ its almost worth your money just to hear these!

Ransomed and Redeemed is a song that's been very well received in our concerts lately and you can hear that as well as the old song, How Long Has It Been.

Spence and Buzz tag team on a bouncy song that says, I Believe, I Believe! Many of you have snapped your fingers to that tune in a Trust Quartet concert.

Spence and I tag team on arguably one of the most powerful songs ever written. I love to sing it and I've enjoyed hearing it on the CD, We Shall See Jesus.

They let me sing a couple songs on this project as well. You've heard me sing at the very top of my vocal range when I sing Testimony. And the "song inside the song" is where the title of the album comes from ~ It's Almost Over, I'm Going Home!

You can also hear a couple of songs on the CD that you've not heard in concert yet, too! Spence does an outstanding job on a song titled God Knows How Much Mercy I Need. What an incredible truth is found in this lyric and Spence does it right! Buzz is featured on an old Stamps-Baxter type song, I Want To Know. Leave it to Buzz to want to jazz things up a bit!

All in all, this is one of the better recordings Trust Quartet has ever done. I've said that before and I'm standing by it. The song selection is varied in style ~ there's sure to be something you like! Kevin Hunt did an outstanding job pulling every bit of our abilities out of us as he produced it. Then when he mixed and mastered, he made the balance and blend just what it needed to be.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I'll try to get some more information uploaded to our website in a day or two; but in the meantime, call us or e-mail us so we can get your copy sent out to you.

Prayer Need

The McKameys have a song that speaks about unspoken prayer requests. They sing about how when our hands go up indicating that need that just doesn't need to be public just yet, the secret's already out in Heaven.

Such is the case right now. Beverly just called me and shared with me a medical need for a family member. I really don't see the wisdom in sharing a lot of details that aren't important in this prayer. As they need to become known, we'll obviously post them here.

But suffice it to say God already knows the need, please join the Trust family in prayer. Thank you; we sure do value our friends. God bless you guys, we love you!
