Sand Springers, Our first real Christmas practice went real well. Our numbers are good but not as many as I would like to see. We would love to have you join us this Wednesday night at 7:45 in the choir room for rehearsal. We are going all out for this years “Sand Spring Christmas Homecoming”. We have invited Jeff Stice back to play the piano for us along with some great groups such as the Patriot Quartet, New Vision Gospel, Love, Mercy and Grace from Campbellsville and a special evening appearance from the Shireys. There will be several soloists from within our choir and four special soloists, one including our own Jeremy Dickerson, who will be off the road for Christmas. Our Christmas Homecoming is scheduled for Sunday, December 22nd at 3:00 and 6:30. Mark your calendars and don’t forget to invite your family and friends. Blessings, Ellery
