Spring is
in the air....maybe
or maybe not, but it sure is great to enjoy the beautiful sunshine for a few
days. EC traveled to the beach this weekend for a little R&R.
We love to take road trips together. It gives us time to build
relationship among ourselves, discuss goals, encourage one another and just
have some good ole fun. We love to laugh and we do a lot of
it! We love to eat too, so we enjoyed some great seafood one
evening. We talked about "success" and "being
satisfied" and what that means to each one of us. Go to our blog for Tim's thoughts
on the weekend. We had a blast and as always, it ends way too
soon. Until next time...

Here it is, the
final day of NQC and what a week it has been. Friday night was a big
night in the concert hall with the Gaither Vocal Band, Signature Sound, Jeff
& Sheri Easter, The Hoppers, the Booth Brothers, The Isaacs, Janet Paschal
and many more taking the stage to a sold out crowd. Many of us in the
exhibition hall gathered around to watch the "live feed" being
broadcast from the hall. I didn't move for over an hour, just in awe of
the music and ministry taking place. One of the highlights early in the
evening was The Hoppers performing "Jerusalem" and "Yahweh"
with a choir and the songwriter/worship leader of these 2 powerful songs, Paula
Stefanovich. WOW! It was church!
Tonight is the
Singing News Fan Awards and the Grand Finale to wrap up a wonderful week.
More to come about this later.
EVIDENT CALL will
be traveling home tomorrow, so please pray for a safe trip for us.

This past Sunday
we traveled to Marion NC and Candler, NC to minister in song. Sunday morning we
were blessed to be a part of the service at Clinchfield Baptist in Marion, NC
and Sunday evening we were in concert at Starnes Cove Baptist Church in Candler,
NC. We thoroughly enjoyed this day with some really nice folks at both
churches. Sunday afternoon was spent with Tim and Tony's family in
Candler who provided lunch for us and a place to rest between services.
Wonderful time with them, we even sang a couple of hymns around the
piano. Special thanks to Phyllis for opening her home to us. Also,
check out new pictures from the weekend and video.

laughter. LOVE YOUR FAMILY TODAY!

Today (Saturday) we appeared on the Tony Peace Gospel Showcase in
Austell, GA along with southern gospel legend Naomi Sego Reader.
This precious lady is celebrating 50 years in the southern gospel industry and
made the statement she is not going to retire any time soon. We were in
awe as we listened to her sing with a clarity and passion in her voice which
could only be attributed to the anointing. She loved what she was
doing and it was evident. What a privilege for us to be on the same stage
with her. We had a great time meeting new folks. Thanks to
all of you who came by our booth to say hello. Check our photo
gallery for pictures of some of our new friends. Until next time.........

Recently EVIDENT
CALL was invited to interview with DJ Dwayne Fowler at WEMM FM in Huntington, W
VA. Our single "HIS NAME IS JESUS" has been a favorite
with the listeners of WEMM, charting at #10 on their top 20 last
month. WEMM FM is the market's largest Christian radio station that
extends into the Tri-state region of Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia.
Dwayne chatted with us about our beginnings in the music industry and how we
got together to form EVIDENT CALL. We had a lot of fun during the 15 minute
interview. Dwayne chose another song from our current CD to air. He
really liked "MY LORD I WANT TO SEE" which is sung by Tony! So
thanks Dwayne for the "kudos" on our music! We appreciate it
and hope to see you good folks in the Tri-state area in the near future!

To all of you moms

the day with residents at Greenville Place Assisted Living in Greenville,
SC. We did a mini concert for them and had a great time. We met some
really nice folks and took pictures, check out the photo gallery. One
sweet gentleman, Joe, thought I (Monica) was gonna give him a kiss as we
brought him in to take a picture with us. You'll see me laughing in the
picture with him and I did give him a "peck" on the cheek! So
cute! Thank you to Marlene for having us over. We were
blessed! Stay tuned for more news later this week!

It has been almost
a week since the release of our debut CD and we so appreciate all that were
able to celebrate with us. We had a blast and hope you did too! That
evening we took up a love offering for the Good Hope Center in
Tabora, Tanzania. Tim and Monica visited Tabora on a missions trip
in 2006 with their good friend, Jo Ann Case. The Good Hope Center is an
orphanage in Tabora opening sometime this summer or early fall. The
offering taken was over $1,000! We were absolutely thrilled at the generosity
of everyone and for catching the vision with us. If you would like more
information, please go to our contact page, give us your name, email address,
etc and we will forward it to Jo Ann. She would love to share her passion
for missions and tell you more of the story about the orphanage. Thank you
again for your support. Let His glory be known throughout the whole
earth!

This past Saturday
(23rd) was the official release date of our debut CD, "EVIDENT
CALL". We had a great time with everyone that evening with family
and friends, old and new. The celebration was held at the church that
Tim, Liz and I attend, North Greenville Christian Fellowship, Travelers Rest,
SC. Our pastor, Sam Wenger, emceed the evening for us and did a fantastic
job. He has been so gracious to us in this endeavor and continues to
encourage us as we move forward in this ministry. God's presence was
truly with us as we presented this evening of music. It is our hearts'
desire whenever we sing that people are touched by His presence and they can
know there is a God who truly loves and cares for them. Always for His
glory, for He alone is worthy!

IT’S ALMOST HERE!
We are so excited that our first project will launched at our CD Release
Celebration soon. We have been in the studio since August of 2007 working with
our producer and friend, Steve Mauldin, to bring to life the sound of EVIDENT
CALL. It was a great time with all those involved, lots of hours, hard work,
humbling experiences (thanks Steve!), lots of laughter (I mean a lot), new
friends and most of all, we had fun!
We have been told
that we have a traditional, southern gospel sound with an “edge”. I think we
are still looking for the “edge” but it is a unique blend of harmonies. Tony,
Tim and I each bring to the table our own style and tastes in music. It’s
wonderful to see God working through us, uniting our hearts and voices to honor
and glorify Him through the music. We love it and its fun! Hmmmm……there’s that
word again, fun! Well, if you can’t fun in the midst of it, why do it, right?
We enjoy what we do and we love the One we serve, Jesus.
Zepheniah 3: 17
says, “For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He
will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your
fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.” (NLT) Or another
translation says, “….he will rejoice over you with singing.”
That’s what I
see…..the Father smiling, laughing with us and singing over us as we delight
ourselves in Him through the music. Thank you Lord!
