We met a special lady last year in Greenville South Carolina.  Theresa and I were at Harmony Fellowship Church when Diane Personett heard me talk about singing in the prisons, schools and orphanages in Africa and Ukraine.  She came to me after the service and said “I like to sew and is there anything that I can do to help with the orphans you were talking about?”  I thought a minute and said Yes, Why don’t you make us some hats for the kids in the orphanages in Ukraine since they live in such a cold climate.  Three weeks ago she came to see us again and brought us 200 hats, 50 scarfs, and 100 small blankets for babies.  She bought the blankets, but hand made everything else.  Here is a picture of Diane and I taken at the Enoree Baptist Church in Travelers Rest, SC.  Theresa and I will take these items to Ukraine in June of 2009.  We will visit some orphanages and hand deliver these to the children there.  God will surely bless Diane for the hard work she has put into this project.  Thank you Diane!

While in Ukraine, I will also be making two music videos in downtown Kiev.  As you know, Ukrainian recording artists Roma Vashchuck and Lena Gorianska recorded two songs with me on my new CD “Fresh Awakening”.  You can look forward to seeing these videos in late 2009.
