Larry Ford is familiar to many through<br />
his solos at Gaither Music Homecoming<br />
events. His smooth tenor voice has<br />
made him a popular vocalist world-wide.<br />
On the Sabbath of Easter weekend, Mr.<br />
Ford will sing during the first part of the<br />
11:00 worship service. Pastor Ben's<br />
sermon will be right after the musical<br />
program. The holiday, concert and<br />
sermon make it a perfect time to invite<br />
new people to our church.<br />
Larry's previous appearances at our<br />
church have been very well-attended.<br />
You will want to arrive early to get a<br />
seat for your friends and family.
