This is a gentle reminder of the Hymn Sing today, Sunday, September 18, 2016, at 6 p. m. at First United Methodist Church, West Chase campus, Westpark Drive at West Sam Houston, Tollway.
I had reported that Lonnie and Betty Rex would be featured artists and play two grand pianos in a music medley. However, I have learned that since Betty has been in the hospital in Houston for most of last week with pneumonia, and now is home resting, that she will not be able to go and perform. However, Lonnie, a gifted pipe organist will be featured on the pipe organ.
It was Lonnie Rex who directed 100-voice choirs at General Conferences and the Sunday School Conventions in years gone bye. Those days appear to be gone forever, but our people still love the singing of the great hymns of the church and Gospel Songs.
This hymn sing will feature four (4) Grand Pianos. Playing those pianos for the hymn sing will be: Gerald Ray, Marvin Gaspard, Jeff Bennett, and Steve Adell.
Soloists will be: Scot Cameron, Cynthia Clawson, Lisa Pierre, and Shana Mashego.
Poet/Lyrics/Writer/Director--Ray Courtney
Guest Artists--Christian Anderson, and Lonnie Rex
[Editor's Comment: If you live in or near the Houston, Texas area, may I encourage you to attend this hymn sing. You will love to hear and Lonnie Rex as he will be featured on the pipe organ. Lonnie and Betty Rex are the best of the best, and they are Pentecostal Holiness people. For many years they were involved in the music ministry at Evangelistic Temple in Tulsa and worked very closely with Dr. Dan Beller, the pastor.]
