Breakthrough Concert
Hey !! I hope all my friends are doing great! I just want to let anybody who might be interested know that the Breakthrough country gospel group will be playing here in Greene this next Sat night at 7:00pm. They are from Lancaster, Pa and they are pretty well known down there. My cousin Jr Fisher is part of it....He plays the electric guitar and is a lead singer. They're all ex-amish or mennonite! Now we all think they're really good....but you're welcome to come and form your own opinions! Its a free thing just for some fun..... So if anyone has any questions just call or contact us anytime. Here's a picture of the flyer... I might try to upload one of their songs....maybe if i get it done;)

SLOW DANCE
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,"Hi"
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

The Twenty-First Time
Nowhere to live
Nowhere to fall
He used to have money
But he’s wasted it all
His face is a photograph burned in mind
But I pretend not to see him for the twenty-first time
He sleeps under stars, it’s all he can afford
His blanket’s an old coat he’s had since the war
He stands on the corner of Carter and Vine
But I pretend not to see him for the twenty-first time
He may be a drifter who’s grown old and gray
But what if it’s Jesus and I walk away
I say I’m the body and drink of the wine
But I pretend not to see him for the twenty-first time
She’s 29 but she feels 48
She can’t raise three kids on minimum wage
She’s crying in back of the welfare line
But I pretend not to see her for the twenty-first time
She may be a stranger trying to get through the day
But what if it’s Jesus and I walk away
I say I’m the body and drink of the wine
But I pretend not to see her for the twenty-first time
This is a call for a change in my heart
I realize that I’ve not been doing my part
When I needed a Savior, I found it in Him
He gave to me, now I’ll give back to them
Drifter or stranger, daughter or son
I’ll look for Jesus in everyone
‘Cause I am the body and drink of the wine
And I’m thankful there’s more than the twenty-first time

This song speaks to me in a passionate way. It touches my heart.... and calls me beyond myself and into the realities i need to face. To the Souls that need saving.... To the simple little helpful things of everyday life.... To the miracles i need to be sharing..... It puts me to shame , and my heart refocuses.
So here's to friends i admire greatly... who give of themselves, and bless others with their lives! I'm proud to have friends like this..... (Ok, yea, these are old pics.....but oh well!)
