Merry Christmas Eve 2025

Hey Friends, 

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday. Today is our Morgan Family Christmas. 

We will be enjoying our day with family. I will share pictures tomorrow. I snapped these two photos last night.

I will leave you with a video I took Sunday Morning. I love to hear our DRPC Kids Choir sing. This was their Christmas Sunday morning song for 2025. 

See you later!

 Hey Friends,

We wrapped up our 2025 4-city mini Christmas tour last night.  Mom and I had a wonderful time at all four stops! 

Thank you to each Pastor and church that invited us to be part of your church’s Christmas celebrations. We love celebrating and worshiping our savior through song. 

We had the massive honor of singing with 3 extremely talented young men. Thank you, guys, for helping us out this year. Mom and I  greatly appreciate your sacrifice, time and labor to be part of the our Christmas services!

Bro. Colton Deane sang with us in Dayton, Ohio and London, Kentucky. Bro. Luke Hauri sang with in Lebanon, Ohio. My first cousin Luke Osborn sang with last night here in Waynesville. It was a huge help to us to have them singing with us. 

Mom and the DRPC Band worked hours on our songs. They sounded excellent. Thank you to Bro. Michael Alexander, Bro. Berkley Rose and Bro. Carmin Dottry for participating in the mini Christmas tour. It was so fun. We dearly love you all and your precious families. 

My cousin Jacqueline Coffman did an incredible job helping with narration. She is a gifted speaker. Thank you so much, Jacqueline. She was also an excellent stagehand on tour.😆 

I will close with pictures from last night. It was a good way to wrap up the 2025 Christmas tour. 

Thank you for reading! I will see you all tomorrow!

A little Angel choir joined us on Go Tell It On The Mountain. They did so good. We love you, Hadassah, Albany, Everly and Addeline. Keep singing girls! 

Sunday Sanity 12/14/25

Hey Friends,

We have had 2 wonderful nights of celebrating Christmas in music. Monday I plan to share the pictures from First Pentecostal. 

My cousin Jacqueline Coffman has been assisting us with some narration during some of the song transitions. It is helpful to have a a spot to get a drink and take a breath. 

Here is her introduction to O Little Town of Bethlehem. I thought this was very powerful. 

“Phillips Brooks is a name most people don't recognize today, yet he was one of the most beloved pastors of the 19th century.

Before he gained fame at Trinity Church in Boston, Brooks served in Philadelphia during the darkest days of the Civil War.

A friend once found him pacing anxiously and asked, “Dr. Brooks, what’s the trouble?” Brooks answered, “The trouble is that I am in a hurry, but God isn’t.”

After the war, Brooks took an extended sabbatical. According to one account, the itinerary included a horseback ride from Jerusalem to the small village of Bethlehem on Christmas Eve. By nightfall he was in the field where, according to tradition, the shepherds heard the angelic announcement.

This experience stayed with Brooks and three years later, he wrote a poem about that sacred night to share with his Sunday school class. 

The church organist later set it to music for the church children to sing, never imagining it would go beyond that Christmas Eve of 1868. But it has turned into a Christmas classic that is now sung around the world: O Little Town of Bethlehem.

Due to bad weather coming to Ohio, we are getting questions about tonight’s concert in London, KY. We left Ohio before the snow came. Tonight's service will still take place at 7:00. Come see us at First Pentecostal!

Hey Friends,

Last night we had a fantastic time at DRPC. It was time for the Christmas dinner and the cantata. Here are the pics I snapped last night.
