Happy Thanksgiving everyone! By the time most of you read this, the holiday will already be over (I'm writing this at 9:01 pm), but Josh and I have had a wonderful day. We hope that you who read this will remember to pray for our oldest brother Jeff & his wife and three kids. They were not able to join us this year due to the kids being sick with combinations of swine flue, strep throat, and Pneumonia, but I heard that they were able to still have a pretty good day considering. We were able to have our next oldest brother Mark and his family with us, and we had a blast just like we always do around holiday times.
We are excited to announce that our DVD is done and ready for sale! We received our first copies of it today a little earlier than we had expected, and it looks and sounds just great. I don't know when we will be able to get it up for display sale on our website (things have not improved with our website update problems) but you can order it or my new CD at any time by calling (810) 653-0089 or e-mailing us at foresterministries@yahoo.com . It is $15.00 by itself, or you can take advantage of special combo packs that we will be offering shortly. All of our product can be ordered at any time by contacting us through the contact info listed above, even if it is not shown on our website store page.
We are also pleased to announce that we will record our first instrumental CD in December. Josh and I are combining our talents at the piano and other instruments to record a CD of hymns and gospel favorites. We will each play several songs by ourselves at the keyboard (as well as play some of the back-up instruments) and then play a piano duet. We also plan to record a couple of songs that will feature Josh at the piano with me switching playing three instruments in mid-song. We both want to record solo instrumental projects eventually, but for now this is looking to be a great step for our ministry. The thing that I feel will really make it interesting to listen to is that, although we have both been playing for ten years under the same five instructors, our personal playing styles sound nothing alike! Putting both of our playing on the same CD is sure to guarantee that you will hear a variety of styles and that no two songs will sound exactly alike. We hope to release it early this spring.
We are also actively booking tour dates for 2010, and are looking for new places to sing.
We hope all of our readers (OK, BOTH of you!) had a great Thanksgiving, and that the Lord will bless you and your churches this Christmas.
God bless all of you as we remember Who the next coming holiday is about,
-Stephen
