July Ministry Update
July 4, 2012 Ministry Journal, Upcoming Events No Comments
Hope you enjoyed the Fourth of July! We can celebrate the freedom we have in Christ and be thankful for the freedom we experience in this nation. Last Sunday’s concert in Los Altos was a fantastic start to the “Empower” summer concert tour. I’ll be with full band this Sunday in Castro Valley doing an UpReach worship night combined with an acoustic concert. If you can come, I guarantee you’ll be refreshed in your faith! This Saturday morning will be the Adult Beginning Guitar Intensive at Mount Hermon. So, if you know anyone who’d like to learn guitar quickly, tell them about this training workshop (details below). Thank you for your prayers through these events and your encouraging notes and comments throughout the month. I hope my music touches your heart as God has touched mine.
Concert/Worship Refreshment
I will be doing concerts this summer throughout the Bay Area. They are entitled “Empower” which will inspire and encourage you to allow Jesus to empower you to live life to the full! In each location, the concerts will begin at 6:00pm Sunday evenings. I’ll be sharing songs that haven’t been recorded yet and some favorites. The evening will also include worship songs you can sing along with. More information can be found at

I will be facilitating a one day Songwriting Intensive this summer at the Mount Hermon Christian Conference Center Fireside Room, limited to 10 participants. It is more of an intimate setting with personal interaction and attention. Because it’s limited, make sure you get in the Application Form right away.
