Manna From My Father's Hand After a LONG time of not posting on the Manna Blog here at Shining River, I posted a series of several blog posts from my "MeWe" (social media) profile. This is likely the beginning of either a more consistent blog or a podcast (or both). This is still in the formative stages, and would appreciate your prayers. You can find the entries from the past few days posted here on Shining River at the following link: https://www.shiningriver.com/manna&20blog/manna_blog_current.html A personal call to my prayer "warrior" friends This is a quick heads up that there may be some new things happening soon around here, and having your prayers lifted up on my behalf would be greatly appreciated. There is a likely possiblity that I'll be beginning some form of prayer and or support membership type groups where we can have a more regular contact, and folks can have input on what types of content would best build up the Body of Christ, and help them as they follow Jesus. Thanks for your prayers in that regard! UPCOMING GIGS A Concert for Emily I want to quickly update those who have been praying for me for the concert that had been scheduled for this coming Saturday, May 20, 2023 (thanks for your prayers, BTW!) I found out this morning that the concert is being rescheduled for a date in August or September (will post the new info when it is firmed up.) There was an issue with outside forces trying to affect the ticket sale process. Don't want to go into it in depth, but suffice to say, there are people out there who don't want to do good (sadly), but our God knows BEST, and will accomplish His will. I had wanted to attend something else with our women's ministry from church this weekend and it was conflicting with my involvement with the concert, so I'm fine with the rescheduling actually;). Thanks again for your prayers, and hope that the change doesn't affect your own plans if you were planning on attending. Will post the new date on my gigs page when it is determined. Saturday, June 17, 2023, 7:00 PM. Boardwalk Pavilion, Ocean Grove, NJ. I'll be playing with the Oracle Band in concert for an evening of music at the Jersey Shore. Join us as we lift up the name of Jesus while the sun sets to our west and the ocean resounds to our east. For directions, visit https://www.oceangrove.org/directions Friday, June 30, 2023, 1:30 PM. Boardwalk Pavilion, Ocean Grove, NJ. Yet again, I'll be singing at one of my favorite outdoor locations. Lifting up the name of Jesus at the Jersey Shore. Hope you can join me in the pavilion on your way to or from the beach, enjoying the incredible beauty of God's glorious creation in this blessed community. I recently decided to go on a social media platform called "MeWe.com". Sorry to those of you FB users, I wasn't as satisfied with their terms, so opted to go to this platform instead. (You do have to join to be able to see posts, but membership is free.) If you happen to be on there, come say "hi", and check out the page I'm developing for Shining River there: https://mewe.com/p/shiningriver |
