Hey guys, I just wanted to thank everyone for coming
out last Saturday. We had another installment of the Crossroads Tour in Carthage,
Ms. We ended up feeding about 200 people and everyone seemed to have a blast.
We had Marcus Pickel from Powerline Music and More providing the PA and light show.
He does an awesome job. If you ever need any type of PA you need to check him out,
he will be the best price that I know of. You can reach him at 601-656-5244.

We told everyone awhile back that we were going to
start going into more prisons. We just wanted everyone to know that we sure got confirmation
this past weekend. We went to Flowood CWC, an all womens prison, and had a BLAST.
Those girls ROCK, also the Greatest thing was 36 young women gave their lives to Jesus.
We give God all the Glory and Honor. Keep praying for us.

Glory to GOD. Lift up your voice and sing praises
to HIM, for He alone is worthy. That is how I feel about Saturday at Noxubee CWC.
It was GREAT, we didn't have any real trouble with the PA nor was it too bad hot.
There were 22 young men that gave their lives to Christ that day. We just give God
all the Praise and Honor for that. We know it didn't have anything to do with
anything we said or did. It was all God and we Thank HIM for it all.

We had a wonderful time Saturday. God gets all the
Glory. We were suppose to play in front of Caedman's Call, however, the rain moved
in and rained out most of the concert. I want to thank all of the guys that helped
us do the world record "MAD DASH TO LOAD PA EQUIPMENT." But Praise God everything
got loaded and nothing was broken, just wet. We got to talk to Mike from Solomon's Wish,
He is one cool dude. Thanks Mike for talking and hanging out with us before the Concerts.
Thanks goes to Life of Worship and Steadfast for making our job of running sound
so easy.

Praise God. Thats all I can say. Praise God for a wonderful
day. We went to Madison CWC and had one of the easiest concerts ever. No techinical
problems and no major mistakes. Our new drummer,Steven Steen, is doing an awesome
job. We had almost 45 mins to sit and relax and talk to the inmates before the concert
bagan. That HAS NEVER HAPPENED before. That is just God. Then to top it all off, 34
men came forward and gave their lives to JESUS. Amen. Thanks to everyone that has
been praying for us and supporting us.

Hey guys, sorry we haven't updated the website lately
but the band took a month or so off. We all needed a break from the grind for awhile.
But we back at it again with an awesome show at Yazoo CWC saturday. We had fun,
even though satan tried to ruin it for us. We thought we blew an amp, and a few of
our channels on the snake went out on us. Praise God however, the amp wasnt blown
and the snake can be fixed. So it is all good.
We didnt have anyone stand up to make a public confession of faith, but we never
know who was touched by us going and doing what God expects of us.
God gets all the Glory and Honor.

Dude, Saturday night was such a BLAST.
We were able to put on another CrossRoads Tour in Bryam, Ms. and we had 2 of the
best bands in the area playing on the stage with us... Median and CalledIsrael...
We ended up feeding about 200 people. We had WLBT cha. 3 come out and do an interview
of the show. And best of all.... ONE PERSON GAVE THEIR LIFE TO CHRIST. that by itself
was worth it all. Thanks everyone for all of your hard work. May God bless each of you....

Man all I can say is AWESOME BLESSING. That is what
Millie Cortaz and the whole gang at Way Cafe' is described in my book. We have been
talking with Millie for awhile now and to finally meet and play for her cafe' was a
true blessing. Millie is a very Godly lady and just an awesome person. I highly
recommend going and checking this place out...

What can I possibly say? God is so great! We ministered at this military training school for troubled teens for a audience of about 150 - 175 and of those 90 - 100 young adults were, by the grace of God, saved! Awesome! No amount of money can measure up to the pay that we received that day!.

The Basement is a really cool place in Laurel. We had great company with some other bands and had a blast.

Spirit Fest was great. The crowd was small because of all the happenings on the coast but we enjoyed performing for God regardless.

Friday and Saturday were such a blessing to us. We were invited to play at a Drug Awareness Program at Yazoo County High School. And it was awesome. There were about 150 kids there, and they really seemed to enjoy our music and testimony. We really had a blast.

Bro. Mike Matthews ROCKSSSS. And so does the entire Bryam Community Church. We went there on March 16th and they made us feel right at home. We had a wonderful time playing for them for a second time. We are planing on putting on a CrossRoads Tour in Bryam on May 4th. We are looking forward to going and Rocking that town for Christ.

We ministered at “The Net”, which is a youth outreach of “Crossgates Baptist Church” in Jackson, MS, and I must say it was awesome. Shane Russell filled in once again on the drums for us. We were prepared to hand out bibles, free of charge, to each person that wanted a copy. Earlier in the week “Freetrade Church of God” had taken up a love offering for us to purchase bibles to give away to all who get saved. We purchased 109 bibles for \\$1each. We’ve always wanted something to give out to people and what better than a full copy of the bible. God is good.
There were about 200-300 in attendance at “The Net” and they were all very responsive to our music. Though no one came forward to accept Christ we know that the Word did not go forth in vain. They gave us a love donation, took up a love offering, and took us out to eat after the concert. Our thanks go out to Youth Pastor Scott Brooks for his hospitality and generosity. We now have enough money to repair our truck that has a blown motor since returning from the “Woodland Hills Baptist Church” concert. God is so good. Thanks be to God for providing His blessings to us. We ask everyone to continue to pray for our ministry and join in supporting us at our up and coming concerts.

God is sooo good. Jesus gets all of our praise for Sunday morning. We went to Oakley Training Center and there were an estimated 150-200 young men in attendance. Of those present, about 75-80 gave their lives to CHRIST. That is just amazing. Praise God for His move of the Holy Spirit in that place. We are so humbled by the fact that He is using our band to further His message. Satan tried to stop us from going, and once we got there, he tried to make our sound bad so the kids wouldn't listen. But you know what. WHEN GOD IS FOR YOU WHO CAN STAND AGAINST YOU? no one, thats who. Not even satan.Thank you JESUS. Keith Parker

God is sooo awesome. We went to Woodland Hills Baptist Church Sat night. And it was awesome. There were 2 girls, Mary and Madison, that gave their lives to Christ during our concert. THAT IS AWESOMMMMEEEE... Praise God.
We are praying and believing that even MORE kids will come to know God Sunday at Oakley Training School. We are soo looking forward to it. If you would, be in prayer for our band to be able to make an impact on those kids for Christ. And also satan is coming against this band to try and stop us from going and doing Gods will. I am going to step out on faith and say that satan WILL NOT stop us. MY GOD IS GREATER THAN satan. ON any day, in EVERY way. God we are depending on you. Thank you. Keith Parker

Last night at First Assembly of God in Clinton was awesome. Satan really pulled out all of his tricks to stop us from going and having an impact on those kids for Christ. He tried getting the lead singer sick and hurting her voice. He tried getting me sick so i couldnt give my testimony. The truck broke down. We thought we blew a speaker during sound check. But you know what.... MY GOD IS BIGGER AND MORE POWERFUL THAN the god of this world. MY GOD gave us the strength to make it thru the night. God gets all the glory for a GREAT FIRST CONCERT. As hard as satan is trying to stop this band from playing, it is pretty clear that we are doing EXACTLY what GOD wants us to do. I give GOD all the glory and honor for the band. Keith Parker

Ok, I know it has been a while since I last updated this page. I am sorry. But now I'm back at it. And just in time, too, because our concert season is starting in a few weeks. As you can tell, if you have been to the concert page, (hint, hint) I just want to say that this year is going to ROCK... We just need everyone's help to make this year bigger and better than the last. We are soooo thankful for each and every one of our fans. Thank you all! Keith Parker

The Crossroads Tour begins. We have gone where no band has gone before.... O.K. it sounded corney but I couldn't resist. This was the beginning of what is definately shaping up to be a mighty work of God in our ministry. We called on local churches to sponsor the event and provided free entertainment and food and drinks for everyone who would come. The bands that performed were "Way of Salvation", an awesome band; "3:16", awesome as well; "Landslide", who has a huge sound and many musicans with multiple talents; and us. We had an M.C. for the night, Bro. Danny Cochran, and Speaker Jarvis Hamilton gave a stirring message. Powerline Productions provided sound and the whole thing was just blessed of God. We were so strongly moved by the overwhelming help and response that we are planning 12 tours in different small towns for 2002 with varying bands. Look for us in the summer and in the fall. The Crossroads Tour...Experience the ROCK.... Timmy Howell

Whew! We just got through with Well's Fest and drove to Clinton music to perform. It was great as always just to be there and hear all the other bands sing praise. Two great concerts in one day is a blessing from God.
September 29, 2001
Well's fest was cool! We were exposed to lots of people, on the local TV news that night, and heard some great music. We didn't get to stay long though because we had to hurry to Clinton Music to perform.
September 8, 2001
The Gumbo fest was great. We got to minister on the same stage as the Crawfish Festival. We were the opening act and just glad to go.
September 2, 2001
All I can say is that Oakley Training Center is an AWESOME place to see the move of God. This was the 2nd time we were able to go and minister to those boys. Of the 300 or so guys there, when we gave the invitational, 3/4's of them stood up. THAT is what it is all about. We are looking for more opportunities in this sort of setting to share the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST.
AUGUST 12,2001
Aren't homecomings GREATTTT? We think so, especially after going back to our very first concert site. Freetrade Church of God was the very first place we played as a band. And the people there ROCK. They allowed us to record our live CD there. We are hoping that we will have a better demo in a few weeks. We are extremely excited about the fact that good sounding CD's are close at hand. We just want to say thank you to everyone at Freetrade COG for everything you do for us. God bless you.
AUGUST 4,2001
We were invited to go to Yazoo Community Work Center on saturday. It was basicly the same set up that the Madison CWC was. About 75 men were there and they really seemed to enjoy our music. There was this one man that gave us an awesome poem that we feel is going to be our next song. We were not able to ask an invitational on this trip, however, we were happy to plant the seeds and allow someone else to water them. Thank God for the opportunity to serve.
JULY 30,2001
We were blessed with the opportunity
to go to the Madison Communtiy Work Center on July 27th. I have to admit, though, we didn't put on our best concert musically. However, God gets all the Glory because there were about 75 inmates at the concert, and 25 of them made a decision to accept JESUS CHRIST as their Lord and Savior.
That is what being a Christain Band is all about to us... leading people to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. We thank Prison Fellowship for giving us the chance to get into the prisons and minister to the inmates.
JULY 19,2001
WOOOHOOOOO... We were able to play at the CHURCH OF GOD Youth Camp and can I just say "AWESOME".
300 youth really gave us a blessing. They had a blast and gave us sooo much energy that we were on high for days afterward.
We just thank God for opening up a door in this area. If any of you teens that were there that night read this.. YOU GUYS ROCK.... thank you sooo much for making us feel soooo welcome.
JULY 14,2001
We had our first concert after 2 months of off time and there was no better place to have it than at The Community Church of Byram. We had an awesome band named Common Bond open up the night for us. They were really difficult to follow.
We had a wonderful night and those kids were just awesome. They seemed to enjoy our music and really had a blast. Thank you Mike Matthews for inviting us to your church. We hope to be able to make it a regular event.
