November Concerts
Good Morning!We're finally seeing a change in the weather - it's feeling like fall! I hope this email finds you well!
Eternal Praise has been busy!
In early October, Kristen, Rachel, Dorothy, and Myra took a trip to Fayetteville, North Carolina to see our friends, the Pritchards, and to talk about new song ideas. They had a great time, and came home with lots of fun pictures and videos to show the rest of us.
Then, in mid October, Garrett proposed to his girlfriend, Sarah Davis! We're all excited and looking forward to a June wedding!
Last weekend, we spent a day in Ione, singing in two services at Cornerstone Church (where we had a great time with Pastor Tony and the other members) and then heading to the Preston Correctional Facility for an afternoon service. It was fun to see our friends, David Skaggs and Jacob Matchak! Pray for Jacob as he accepts a new chaplain position in Ventura, CA.
November is promising to be just as busy! Here is a list of the concerts we have scheduled. Come out and join us - we love to see familiar faces in the audience, as well as make new friends!

On Saturday, November 15, 2008, the 3rd Annual California Gospel Jubilee will be presented at the Christian Life Center, 650 E. Olive Avenue in Merced.
Doors will open at 4:30pm, with a soup and salad supper available for $6. The program will begin at 6:00pm and feature gospel music talent from throughout central California, with groups coming from Tulare to Sacramento.
As a special treat this year, the event will feature one of the most well-known singer/songwriters in gospel music, Ronny Hinson of Nashville, Tennessee. Ronny and his siblings traveled for years as a singing group known as the Hinsons. They got their start in California in the late-sixties, and became a national sensation in the early-seventies after Ronny penned the song "The Lighthouse". The song has become a classic in Gospel music, and has been recorded and sung by hundreds of artists. Ronny continues to this day to be one of the most recorded songwriters in Gospel music.
California talent on the program this year includes the California Melody Boys, Debt Free, Eternal Praise, Herb Henry Family, Richland Trio, Roger Tripp & Christian Country and Solid Ground. As usual, the program will also feature the "All-Star Jubilee Band", a jam session with various musicians, and featuring two-time California State Fiddle Champion Brian Cogburn.
Admission is $10 for adults, with seniors (age 60 and up) $8. Children high-school aged and under will be admitted free.
