| “I just wanted to let you know I
consider it a great honor to be connected to your outreach ministry
via my song 'Something Visible'.
I was sent an email page describing the vision and actions that City Connections represents and saw a link to my website encouraging people to listen to the song. Thank you! It is amazing to see how closely our hearts are intertwined with the same hopes, dreams and expectations we both know are possible through Christians who will simply 'Do Something Visible'! I have based my entire ministry on encouraging the body of Christ to be visible for the Lord (Between Sundays!) If there is anything I can do to help support your ministry through my ministry, please let me know." |
