CrossRoads Baptist yearly singing September 19, 2009...and then Branson

A good friend of ours, Michael McClurg, had his annual singing at Crossroads Baptist that day. He used to have them at Wommack Mills, and he'd been doing them over there for 8 years...well, this year was the 8th annual singing. He just wasn't able to have them at Wommack Mills anymore, but at least he's still able to be doing them! We had been in Branson (which I'll write about that later) for the weekend (Crossroads is I believe 80 or so miles away from Branson! lol), so we went to sing for the Crossroads singing and then went back to Branson to finish the weekend there. There were also a couple other people that sang there at Crossroads who's also from the monthly singing in Branson (Paul Rauch and Linda Henson), but we were ALL able to make it back to Branson for most of the rest of the day...
We always have a good time at Michael's singing.
When we got to Branson, we went and got my Grandma and Grandpa from the hotel room. We'd missed some of the meeting, but I think we probably got the main jist of what the meeting was all about when we got there. Big Al, Gary S. Paxton and Charles Brady were having a little meeting at the place where we have our singing for songwriter's (they've started doing this every year, this was only Charles 2nd time and Big Al's 1st time), and it is pretty informative if you need that type of info...(and also some about how to get it published and all of that...)
And then after that, they had a special concert...the finalists in the songwriters sang a song or two that they wrote! (oh, we also ate in between times...VERY GOOD FOOD!) And they also had a couple of special people from Branson come and perform! It was good to just sit back and relax!
SO, our day on Saturday was pretty long, but it was fun enough!

Anywho! Hope y'all have a blessed and safe day!

Love y'all,
