Hey Friends & Neighbors! 

Happy New Year! I trust you all had a blessed Christmas. I most certainly did. Time well spent with my family and friends. I enjoyed my winter break from my daytime job as the cook at a local Christian preschool, and just returned to work this past Tuesday. It's always nice to be able to take some time to get some much needed rest and kind of recoup from my very hectic 2017. 

My winter calendar usually slows down a bit, but it won't be long before I'm off again singing most weekends and sometimes most weeks when I'm in Revivals. I've already added quite a bit to my 2018 calendar. Most recently just yesterday and today. It's not to early to get your date secured now before they are all taken. LOL!

God has really blessed my music ministry these past couple of years. I am so humbled and thankful for each opportunity that He has allowed me the privilege to be a part of. 

2017 was most certainly a very busy time for me, but I wouldn't have changed one bit of it. I experienced joys and sorrows, trials and triumphs. I got to go to Sommerset, Ky and experience Gospel Music Fan Fair, I rode and old steam engine train 11 miles up a mountain. God's handy work on those mountains was just breathtaking. I made so many new friends this past year as well. I visited a lot of New Churches and returned to so many old ones too. I'm so thankful God has kept me safe on my journey for Him. What a merciful, caring and loving God we serve. 

I'm so excited about 2018. As I mentioned before, my calendar is filling up rapidly, so remember to get a hold of me to come and share at your churches next event.

I do covet your prayers as my journey for Jesus continues here in 2018. You pray for me and I'll pray for you! And when you don't feel like praying, PRAY anyway!! 

I'm looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones yet again this year. I do hope and pray our paths cross this year. Do take care my friends and keep Jesus in your heart and share Him with someone out there that doesn't know Him! 

Be blessed!!

In all my prayers for you, I always pray with joy. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you. Since I have you all in my heart. 

See you soon

Jimmy

Hey friends
Just a quick update. Winter is here or should I say Spring!! We have been having 60 and 70 degree temps in February! Isn't that CRAZY!!?? No complaints though! Although, I have yet to try out my 4 wheel drive in my new jeep. Maybe before this winter is over, I will get a chance. But if the Lord decides on an early Spring, then SO BE IT!!! 
This is surly my busiest winter that I have ever had. And that's thanks to all of you. I appreciate all the Churches that have allowed me to come in and share my ministry in song with you. I'm looking forward to all the dates I have been blessed with coming up. Be sure to check out my full up to date schedule to see where I'll be next. 
I usually would be in the process of choosing new songs for a recording, but, I've decided, after much prayer, to take a break from recording, and focus on writing more songs. I really want to do a Cd with all original material written or co-written by me.  I really have wanted to do a project like this for a while. Be sure to stay tuned, and I'll be sure to keep you all informed on when a new Cd will be in the works. Possibly,  by late summer, early fall. LOTS of changes are coming though! And that I will keep to myself until the time is right to share. Oh, the suspence!!!! lol. 
Well my friends, I so do appreciate you all for your continued support and most of all your prayers as I continue to fulfill my calling to spread the GOOD NEWS of JESUS!  Do take care and remember......
Let's PRAY one for another!
I'm gonna pray for you, and you're gonna pray for me. And when you don't feel like praying....PRAY anyway! 
In all my prayers for you, I always pray with JOY. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, Since I have you all in my HEART! 
Much love and Prayers to you all.
Press On Regardless,
Jimmy
