Spreading God's Word through Music

No. 14, August 2009

Hello Friends! We have good news to share:

Events: Faithful Folk concluded its 2009 event tour with a benfit concert in Manchester, CT for Young Adults in Global Ministry. The event raised over $1600 for the ministry! They also played a pre-service concert at the installation of Pastor Tobias Anderson (also Director of Faithful Folk). This was especially exciting as the event included all of the musicians (pictured above) who currently play as part of Faithful Folk events. New events for 2010 are already in the works and our new event schedule should be up at the website by January first - so keep checking back! Now is also a great time to contact us to plan an event if you want to be part of the 2010 schedule.

Expectation

E-release of Faithful Folk Christmas Songs:
As part of the "Inspired Cooking" compilation CD/cookbook finished last year, Faithful Folk recorded 5 new Advent and Christmas songs. Now these songs will be available for digital download at our website Nov. 30th -- just in time for Advent and Christmas! There is also an online CD book complete with liner notes, lyrics, and guitar chords for each song. A limited edition of "hard copies" will also be available for those who wish to hold the Expectation CD in their hand!

FF Board Members

Board re-organization:
After a prayerful two-year self-study conducted by Board members, the Board for Faithful Folk has been re-organized to provide greater support for the ministry's outreach. Board members, together with an ever-increasing number of volunteers, will now be planning outreach (concert and benefit even coordination), communication (newsletters, website), and advancement (financial stewardship). Board members and family gathered at Camp Koinonia in Port Jervis at the end of September to finalize details of this plan and conduct other Board business -- thank you Koinonia! As an ongoing show of confidence in the ministry the Board has also raised $1,000 among themselves to provide five $200.00 subsidies for host sites that cannot afford the full cost of a Faithful Folk event.

Tobias Anderson, Director
