Its been another successful weekend for the Lord! We were fortunate to have been invited to perform at Mariah Baptist Church for their "Pack A Pew" Sunday service and let me tell you...these folks really have it going on!
What a wonderful feeling of friendliness these folks exude and trust me...not every church is like that! After making us feel very welcome, we did (2) sets of country gospel and I thought the roof was gonna blow off the place! The Holy spirit was definitely in control and Pastor Bill and his church singers did a wonderful job as well...this church if full of talent!
Mariah Baptist...keep on keeping on...you've got something special at your place!
As the year winds down, I'm reminded ever more how much we need to keep on doing all we can to serve God. The winds may blow around us, the financial markets may look bleak, gas may be very high or even non-existant in places...but God will always make a way through the rough times for his children. I truly think "His Coming" must be close at hand and we do not want to be caught unprepared upon "His" return. Let me exhort each of you to be co-laborers in the field....there are lots of souls needing salvation and many hurting people out there whose fire may have grown dim....lets lift each other up to God in prayer and fight the good fight of faith!

New Journey Quartet In Mooresboro, NC
Many thanks go to High Shoals Baptist Church in Mooresboro, NC for hosting us this past Sunday morning. Pastor Micheal Pardue and congregation were all superb hosts and man can them ladies cook!! Of course, we had a special service with New Journey bringing a message in song and Pastor Micheal bringing us the preached word...what a one-two punch for God!
Let me back up for a minute and tell you what a time we had getting to Mooresboro! We started around 6:30 am and finally got there about 9:30! We got a bit lost on the way...Mooresboro isn't the end of the earth, but you sure can see the end from there! Its times like this that I'm glad we had GPS navigating both global positioning systems and God's positioning system!

Pray for our alto singer's car, it broke down on the way, but luckily we had enough room in the other vehicles to fit her, Phillip and Mike....you see, even though the devil tried to hinder us...God always makes a way!
This sunday night at 6pm, the New Journey Quartet will be in Spruce Pine, NC (on top of some of the prettiest mountains) at First Freewill Baptist Church. Come out and join us along with Pastor Ralph and his congregation, some of the liveliest and nicest people you'll ever meet...until then....Onward Christian Soldiers!

Trinity Broadcast Network Appearance
We got in last night around 1pm after having made an appearance on the TBN affiliate Dove Broadcasting Network's show known as "Niteline" hosted by Joanne Thompson in Greenville, SC. Let me say what a pleasure it was to be a part of this wonderful program which truly touches people for God!
This was our second return appearance on Niteline and a few of our current members hadn't performed on TV before, so needless to say, we were a little bit nervous. However, the whole crew at Niteline put us all at ease and when Ms. Thompson had a word of prayer with everyone proceeding the show, we all knew that God was at the steering wheel and that everything was going to work out alright...let me rephrase that...it wasn't alright, it was awesome! We've already been getting emails from viewers of the program and how the music and word of God touched them in a special way and we truly appreciate the kind words and the opportunity to share our ministry over the airwaves.
Also of special note, we hope to create a new DVD/CD from our live performance on Niteline thanks to the excellent sound quality of the DBN crew...thanks guys, you were great to work with! Be on the lookout in a month or so for this new "Live" project...we're really excited about it!
This coming sunday, we'll be performing at a new church to us for our first time, High Shoals Baptist Church in Mooresboro, NC at 10am. Come on down, we'd love to have you worship with us and I'm sure the pastor of High Shoals Baptist would love to have you as their guest!
Until the next time, keep on praying for us as we do for you...and may God richly bless you!
Sincerely,
Bill Warren

Its Getting Busy for NJQ!
Well gang, its been another busy weekend for the New Journey Quartet. We had the awesome privilege and honor of performing at New Vision Baptist Church in Granite Falls, NC where are friend Carl Hamm is the pastor. This church simply rocks! They treated us with such kindness and respect. But most importantly, the spirit of God was there as evidenced by several testimonies given by the audience while the group performed! Let me say, New Journey loves it when we get to hear heartfelt, soul stirring testimonies like that!
While preparing for the concert, God laid a song on my heart called, "He's Sending Miracles" that we haven't sang in over 4 years, but he laid it there for a reason as the dear lady who jumped up as soon as the song was sang and told about her healing miracle from heart surgery....you see folks, God's plans are always better than man's and I'm so glad he had us sing this song...isn't God awesome?
Be in prayer for our group as we will have the opportunity to sing on the Trinity Broadcasting Network station affiliate, Dove Broadcasting in Greenville, SC on Monday, September 8th. This is our second appearance on the program "Niteline" which is aired all over South Carolina, Georgia and parts of North Carolina, reaching hundreds of thousands via cable. Pray that God will use the group in a great and mighty way that night and that souls are touched! We are certainly excited about this tremondous opportunity to sing and spread God's word through the ministry of New Journey...who knows what doors this may open for us!
Most importantly as most of you know, we're not entertainers but a true music ministry who wants to see souls saved and refreshed wherever we go! Now don't get me wrong....we're glad when people enjoy our "Live" and very talented band and the singing abilities of each of its members...but the "Goal" if you will, is always to reach folks for God!
September is going to one of our busiest months ever and we invite you to check our concert calendar at: http://www.newjourneyqt.com/Concert_Calendar.html to see if we're in an area near you. Keep praying for us as we continue to pray for each of you and come out to a New Journey Quartet concert near you and lets worship together!
