It is Friday, and we just got back from the Inspire '08 worship conference in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Carl Cartee Ministries put on the conference, and they did a wonderful job. They had guests such as dove award nominee, Christy Nockels...Steven Furtick, with Elevation Church, one of the fastest growing churches in the country, and Randy Hughes...one of the greatest luthiers in the nation. WAKETHESILENCE Ministries had the honor to set up a booth at the conference. It was such a privilege to be surrounded by worship leaders whose desire is to share Christ's love to others through music. We got a lot of great feedback from the guests there, and they were very supportive through donations and prayer. Thank you, Inspire '08! A special thank you to Matt and Randy Hughes for helping us with our booth and spreading the word about WAKETHESILENCE! You guys are awesome, and we are blessed to have you as friends!

We wanted to bring to your attention a need from a missionary in Liberia (we do not want to disclose her name at this time). In her application she describes what she does there...
I am working as a missionary with EQUIP, but I do my own personal ministry as well. The church I attend has a choir that wants to learn American music to complement their African music. We also sing hymns (from very old hymnals), and because there are no instruments and no one can read music, the tunes are usually much different from that written. I have found it difficult to teach them both the melody and parts to songs without help with an instrument. These people have been deprived of so much from the wars, but they love the Lord and love music. I want them to learn music and sing it correctly.
Here are the immediate needs that she has:
Keyboard (66 note, with some different instrumental tones (piano, organ, etc.). It needs to be 220V and/or battery.
She also needs accompaniment tapes to sing to for a male quartet, choir and solos.
If you can help with any of these needs please contact us! Thank you very much for your constant prayers and support.
We found this sweet picture of children in Liberia...
