One 2003 summer stop
was at First Lutheran Church in Charlotte, Michigan. The evening
concert was to be outdoors, but at set-up time, it was raining,
thundering, yet the sun was shining, and there was a rainbow. Cool!
Only in Michigan ?!??

This is the "Victory Arch" for our Marine son, Chris, (Kuwait) and all the others who currently serve or have served in the military around the world to bring peace and stability. He returned home safely November 2003. We give thanks and continue to lift up others still deployed, and loved ones separated. Let's all remember daily that everything is in God's mighty hands! |

While teaching at Valley Lutheran HS in Saginaw, MI,, during Easter break 1996, 24 students and 8 faculty were blessed to go on a mission trip to Hong Kong and China. My musician/mission counterpart, K. K. Fung, taught me many things about music, culture, outreach, and Christian ministry in that part of the world. This was goodbye! |
|
In 1999, after 22 years of Lutheran high school music teaching and national music ministry, the Lord opened wide the doors for full-time MMME. God is faithful; years later, the ministry still grows! |
 |
Your prayers are still being answered: by God's grace and leading, this ministry is ... effective, timely, accessible to those it will benefit, and impacting a new generation of music ministers and spiritual leaders! |
