Sing To The Lord
From the Pastor’s Desk
Soon after I became the pastor of this fellowship, I heard that a nationally recognized country gospel singer was in our area. At that time, we were meeting in Yucca’s elementary school cafeteria with only about 25 full time members. Somehow, I became privy to his phone number and called him. I was very sure that our fellowship would be far too small to attract a nationally recognized recording artist – But I called. As it turned out, Wade prefers to sing in small country churches and we fit the bill perfectly. Well, he came, we met and Wade and Kathy have become like one of us. Every year for the past 13-years Wade has blessed us with a visit. I have even had the opportunity to play backup for him in larger settings where I pretend to be part of his backup band. Steve and I have even helped to write two songs with Wade and we even used my small
recording system to lay down tracks for his music. Bottom line, through the years, Wade and Kathy Hammond have become close friends and brother and sister in the Lord. We welcome them back this morning as we once again have the opportunity and the blessing to enjoy the music of Wade Hammond as we lift up the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
