Country Gospel Music Association Duo of the Year
2007 & 2008
Country Gospel Connection Duo of the Year 2009
                                         MISSION STATEMENT  
We have been called by God as Ambassadors of Reconciliation to bring hope and
healing to marriages, our families and our nation.

                                               II Cor. 5:18-20
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ , he is a new creation.  old things have passed away,
behold, all things have become new.  Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us
to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.  That is
that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to
them , and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.  Therefore, we are
ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us, we implore you on
Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

                                                    II Chr. 7:14    
"If my people who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek
my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and forgive their
sins and heal their land."
                                                

We are very passionate about the restoration of broken relationships.  We love sharing
what God has done in our own marriage and family and we give Him all the glory.  Opal
and I have been singing gospel music in church and on our shows across America
since we were married over 38 years ago. Between 1997 - 1999, we went through a
marital crisis that nearly destroyed our marriage and family. Since that time, God has
given us many opportunities to openly share His goodness and restoration power, thus
bringing hope and encouragement to many people.  Our number one desire in life is to
honor Him in ALL that we do.

He has placed us in a very unique type of work/ministry in the entertainment industry
.  
Our variety concerts are primarily in RV resorts in AZ, CA and TX entertaining
"Snowbirds", the wonderful seniors in our land.  W
e are excited that He has blessed us
with this opportunity, in addition to our ministry in churches and other venues
throughout the states.

We are honored to be the recipients of the 2007 & 2008 International CGMA  Duo of
the Year award (Country Gospel Music Association).  Also, The Country Gospel
Connection, Hope Street Radio awarded us the 2009 Duo of the Year award.  

Having grown up in the south with a deep-rooted love for traditional country, southern
style, gospel music, Opal continues to do what she is gifted to do best, Gaither style
gospel music.  She is often referred to as "Little Vestal" as in Vestal Goodman.  I sing
harmony and play several different instruments,
sometimes featuring the steel guitar
during our concerts.

It was an honor for us to be the Ambassadors on the Road for the the King of the
Cowboys, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Happy Trails Theater,  Branson, MO for two
years.  They closed the theater and museum in 2009.  But more than anything we are
proud to be ambassadors for the KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS, Jesus Christ.

We are currently the Ambassadors on the Road for the Grand Country Music Hall in
Branson and they have seven incredible shows in that complex, including two gospel
shows that are absolutely wonderful.  We invite you to check out these
great, whole-
some family shows while in Branson.

If you feel that our ministry would bless your people by sharing in concert and/or
testimony, we would be honored to get to know you and share a special service or
event with you.

In His service,
