Hello Krew

 
Just a few things this week.  I didn't sing this past weekend so there won't be any "road stories" to share with you.  I was blessed to be in my home church Sunday and encouraged by my pastor's sermon.   It's a great little church and I am proud to be a part of it. 
 
Got a few things to address in this newsletter:
 
1.  Not all but some of you have gotten the newsletters in the past few weeks and you have seen a lot of ? marks.  Some have seen a lot of A's encrypted in the newsletter.  After much investigation, INJESUS, the mailing company that I use, insures us that they are working on the problem and hopefully it will be fixed soon.  Hopefully by the time you get this newsletter, the problem will be fixed.   If you get the newsletter with all the ? marks or all the A's,  let me know. 
 
2.  I have gotten lot's of mail about UNFOLDING MAJESTY schedule on TBN.  To answer your questions,  I DON'T KNOW.   I too wish TBN would leave the schedule alone and stop switching the program around.  Right now it's shown on Wednesday morning at 6 am (set your VCR) and Thursday mornings at 11:30 EST.   Hopefully lots of people will write TBN and request it back on Tuesday nights.  If you would like to do that,  www.tbn.org and then "contact" and then "General Correspondence and Questions". 
 
3.  I have the info on Singing in the Sun.  Its April 26-29 in Myrtle Beach SC.   I will be there on Saturday morning, the 29th.  Talent for this year's Singing In The Sun is incredible featuring The Hoppers, Jessy Dixon, Ernie Haase & Signature Sound, Brian Free & Assurance, Ivan Parker, The Greenes, The Pfiefers, The Perrys, Michael
Combs, The Talley Trio, The Triumphant Qt., The McKameys, Mark Bishops,
The Primitive Qt., The Whisnants, Mark Trammell Trio and many others! Tickets officially
go on-sale on Thursday, January 12 at 10 am and are available only by
calling the toll-free number 1-888-238-6858 of Abraham Productions. I hope that when you call for tickets, you will tell them that you are coming to see me there.  As you know I used to be on the board of this event and I strongly believe in this.  That's why I really want all my friends who can possibly make it to this event to be there.  This is the first time I have been invited back and your help is of utmost importance.  Thank you for making the extra effort to be there.  
 
4.  NEW CD   Yes, that's right!  I have a brand new CD that was just released.  I haven't said anything about the recording of this, I didn't know when it would be out so I have not mentioned it.  I have always wanted to do a "soft and easy" kind of record. So I picked out some of my favorite hymns, some praise and worship songs, and went to the studio.  Anthony Burger did some great arrangements, Allison Speer once again did a great duet with me on "I'd Rather Have Jesus",  and I am very very pleased with it, I also included the song "Judge Not" that I have been singing for the past few months.  I think you will love it 
Song titles are :
 
1.   Jesus Is the Sweetest Name I Know/ The Longer I Serve Him
2.   I Worship You/ Oh The Glory
3.   Hallelujah, Your Love Makes Me Sing
4.   Peace, Peace
5.   I'd Rather Have Jesus
6.   Marvelous Grace
7.   Judge Not
8.   Say the Name
9.   No One Cares Like Jesus/ God Leads His Dear Children Along 
10. Great Is Thy Faithfulness
 
I am really proud of this project. I have listened to this one more than anything I have recorded in a long time. 
 
An autographed copy is waiting for the first 50 people who order this CD.  You don't have to call the office to order.  Simply go to The Kirk Talley Store and place your order and we will get it sent right out to you.  However if you want to call the office and give your info to Dot, that will be fine too.  865 933 2100

Make your plans now to join us on March 25th  in Maryville TN for another great concert at the Maryville College.  Allison Speer will join me that night, along with Phil Cross and Poet Voices and also First Love will be there.  It's going to be great!   I hope you all will plan on coming in from out of town and spending the evening with us.  For tickets, contact Dottie820@aol.com
