Eastwood hosted its Second Annual Gospel Singing this past Friday evening, March 18, 2011. We were blessed with the attendance of 160 singers, who were led by 35 song directors. Sincere appreciation is expressed to all who attended and who directed our wonderful singing. Visitors honored us from many Shoals area congregations, as well as from congregations throughout the states of Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee. We sang from 7:00 PM until 9:00 PM, and it seemed like these two hours flashed by in a hurry! Our singing was a resounding success as a result of the wonderful attendance and participation.

As usual, our ladies and gentlemen outdid themselves with the wonderful food that allowed us further fellowship following our gospel singing. Food? You know it, and plenty of variety, quality, and quantity.

We would like to cordially invite you to visit Eastwood at every opportunity that you have. We want all to feel welcome as we worship God together.

Beginning on Sunday, February 6, 2011, Eastwood will begin a 4:00 PM singing class in the auditorium. We will plan to sing until about 4:45 PM, giving us time to visit with our ‘family’ prior to worship on Sunday evenings. We pray that all of our congregation will find this to be a helpful and encouraging part of our time together. All are invited to this class.

During this time together, we want to incorporate ‘basic rudiments’ of music to add to our ability to sing ‘parts,’ to improve our singing together. This will include, but not be limited to, learning ‘shape notes,’ learning to find the ‘key’ of songs, learning what ‘time signatures’ mean, etc.

By our learning and growing together, Lord willing, we will be able to form a group for singing at funerals and other opportunities. Our singings at local area nursing homes are certainly wonderful opportunities to supplement this training time together. Once again, I encourage every member to make it a priority to join with brothers and sisters to encourage these older folks, as well as to improve our singing.

If you have questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to bring them to me and we’ll certainly try to find answers.

In Christ,
Ron Hayes
