What an incredible  evening of music  and song presented by legendary performer, Diana Ross!  The fabulous Ohio Theater was the stage for an intimate 80 minute concert featuring Miss Ross and a 12 piece ensemble including 4 brass instruments. Miss Ross, whose voice is still beautiful and clear after nearly 50 years of entertaining, delighted the audiience with hit after hit from  her vast catalog  of songs. For most of the evening she stood on the very edge  of the stage, interacting with her fans in her own warm and charming way. She brought class and elegance to Columbus, no doubt about it! Throughout the evening she weaved her magic through the songs of the  Supremes, her solo hits, movie  themes, and a couple from her lastest release "I Love You."  Once again Diana Ross proved that she is "The Boss"!

Located near the Pickaway/Ross county line, Salem United Methodist Church is truly a delight. The congregation is warm and friendly. The pastor  Jon Osmundson  is certainly one  of the  United Methodists "rising stars" ! I was impressed with his style and substance. In fact the entire worship service was rich and meaningful. Long time friends Earl and Marcella Hildenbrand opened the door for me to sing! I was honored to both  sing at the  worship  service, and to  pre-empt their Sunday School hour  with a concert! It  was a great  day for me and hopefully the folks at Salem were blessed as well!

Although the name and location of the church has changed since the last time I sang for the  congregation, the same  warm welcome and appreciation was shown to me. Located on SR 56 just  southeast of Circleville, Living By Faith Ministries  is an independent, Bible-based church full of  the love  of Jesus. Long  time friends  Glen and Mary Metzler attend and got me  the invite. Pastor Robert Henry  does a great job of minstering to the people of God.  My sincere thanks goes out to the folks at Living By Faith, for allowing me to sing 6 songs from the new CD.
