Sept to Remember - September 29, 2008
Well, this is a little late coming out. We went to NQC this year made wonderful new friends and sang on the stage with Gold City,The Dove Brothers, Susan Whisnant. It was a blessing and something we will neer forget. The best thing though was having people come to our booth for prayer and fellowship. GOD IS GOOD!
Update on my grandmother:after 22 days in the hosp/Siskin she is home and recovering praise the Lord.
Remember to pray for our ministry list,other ministries, our economy, the lost and the shut ins. If there was ever a time we needed to bind together and pray it is NOW!! We do not have long friends until the trumpet will sound to take us home. We must be about the Father's business.
Our single is doing well. Call and request Josh's song "A Good Day" . It is on Chapel Valley Disc 8 track 10.
Our 3rd anniversary singing, is on Oct 4 at our home church Rossville Church of God from 6-8p.m. Everyone is invited to attend.
God bless you!!

Goodbye, My sweet girl - August 7, 2008
It is with a heavy heart that I must say goodbye to my step-sister Ashley Denise Lusk Sue born Sept 20,1984 left on Aug 2, 2008 just weeks before her 24th birthday. She was a very loving person with a smile that lit up the room. I knew Ashley as a small child before my mom married her dad. I never had a sister and it was my honor to be hers. Depression played a vital role in her departure from this world. Some people are blessed and never get a visit from the unwelcome guest of long- term depression. Others have it as a constant companion. In honor of Ashley, I ask each one of you that if you see someone suffering please reach out to them. It just might save a life. Sitting at the funeral home last night. I could not help to wonder how many others may be suffering in the dark ;too ashamed to speak about it for fear that no one would care or understand. I want to say that I will be there for those that are hurting . This means going OUT of our way. Listening and praying. Ashley- I will do my best to love like you did , forgive as if it never happened immediately instead of thinking it over.Living an example before God and my fellowmen that loves. I love you sweet girl. I will miss you.
Love , Dana a.k.a. Sissy
Alleluia August - August 4, 2008
WOW! I can not believe that August is already here! We are just one month away from NQC and things are coming together rapidly. Our single, "A Good Day" has gone into HEAVY ROTATION on 3 stations. SweetWater,Tn, Kentucky and Louisiana. God is good. You can call A.M. 1070 M,T,W,T, 12-5p.m. and request it. Also , US101 Gospel Road.It is on Potter's Child Promo Disc #6 track #4. We found out Friday that we needed to have a publishing company and we hated to pull $ out of the savings acct. We prayed and while we were @ Mt Sumach the Lord laid it on Bro Tommy's heart for the church to give us the $150 fee and they gave us an additonal $300 in tables sales/love offering. GOD IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God is opening more and more doors and we are excited to see where HE is taking us next.
Colton started 5th grade on Aug 1 and on Aug 30 my Thomas will be 1 already! What precious gifts our children are from the Lord.
I have been busy canning and baking homemade breads which has proven to be a blessing to our ministry in the hard economic times but GOD is faithful. David said," I have never seen the righteous forsaken nor His seed begging bread."

Wow! We have been blown away by God's goodness. We got our income taxes back and poured all of it into the ministry. We got some repair work done on the van ,got a new trailer and are having new tracks built in the studio. Praise the Lord! We made a lot of new friends in 2007 and they are inviting us back to be with them in service again this year and that is an honor. Our third project should be available late April. We are still praying about the title. GOD IS SO GOOD.

2008 IS GONNA BE GREAT! - January 1, 2008
Praise the Lord! 2008 is here. The Lord has given us opportunity to reach more souls for HIM! We need to pray harder, work harder, and give GOD more than we ever have before this year!
We have decided to finish our hymnal project and then we will be in the studio in March for a"professional" recording and all new tracks for our all-new songs. We thought we were going to release ,"He's There " to radio but we got some bad advice so we are going in a different direction. We need to sober and vigilant because our adversary the devil goes about seeking whom he may devour. BUT WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS THROUGH CHRIST. A word of caution to other ministries, be careful. If something sounds TOO good to be true then it probably is.
We will keep you posted on our journey.
