"Fellowship of Christian Artists" is a group of Christian singers, speakers, songwriters and musicians who are willing to help one another in their work for the Lord by promoting one anothers' Ministries in addition to their own, therefore reaching out even more to spread the Word of The Gospel. Our members love the Lord, and love to serve Him. If you are looking for someone to sing or speak for an engagement, please consider one of our Artists. God Bless.
LETTER FROM HOME
Thought I would use this space to connect with our Artists and Artist supporters.
I know times are very difficult for some of us. In communicating with you, it hurts my heart to hear how hard it is. How difficult it is just to get in the doors to Minister for a Church, sometimes calling many times over, to receive no call back, emails with no email back, promises broken that you took to be true, because you are Christians and expect others to behave to you as you do to others. We know who wants us to give up, but we cannot let him win! We just cannot! Our Bible tells us in Romans 8:28 that "God works all things out for good to those who love him, those who are called according to His purpose." That is us. So just keep on trying, keep on calling, keep on emailing. Someone with a kind and open heart will listen to God and invite you in with open arms. Just be the very best you can be. And pray, and believe, and give, and serve with everything you have, and with the belief that God is in control, that doors that don't open may be doors that aren't good for you, may even be harmful for you. God knows what's best! He is, after all, our Father. He has our best interests at heart. He loves us so! You are all in our prayers. I love you all with all my heart. Jeannie
We have many potential new Artists who have requested the paperwork to become members! I will be adding them once I receive their membership forms back in the mail. Check out our new Artist of the Month. It could be you.
NEED TO KNOW
We know the need the Artists have to gain venues to share their music, and will help in any way we can. We (Jerry and I and others) get phone calls often asking for help with contacts, and we are glad to help out. We all need to remember to have our presentation be the very best, vocally and professionally, as we can possibly make it. Ask a good friend you trust what improvements you could make. We all have room for improvement. Pray beforehand, dress impeccably, be kind, open and loving to every single person you come in contact with at a concert, or anywhere, for that matter. Shake hands, hug necks, you never know who might see Jesus in you and ask you to come back, or to come to a Concert at their church or festival. Never be "standoffish" or distant. Even if it is out of your comfort zone, be an open door to conversation, questions, praying for a special need. Put together benefit concerts in your area. Help your neighborhood. There are so many needs out there right now, it would be easy to find an individual or organization that a few hundred dollars (or thousand dollars) in love offerings would help enormously. It would also mean you would get to sing for the Lord!! Have the best equipment possible. It is too important to take chances that it "might be OK".
Let us help one another in the quest to serve our wonderful God, sending a contact to a fellow artist for a concert we are unable to make, or inviting an artist to join you for a concert so he/she can be heard also. As it tells us in Phillipians Chapter 2, verses 3 and 4, "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others."
My dear Artists, please remember that the Fellowship of Christian Artists not only helps with booking opportunities by giving you website coverage, but we are also here if you have a need, whether it be Spiritually, financially, physically, or any need that we have the ability to help with. Our Artist Assistance Fund is rather small right now because we are so new, but we will do whatever we can to help you with a need. You can contact any member or myself for prayer, or other needs. We are here for you. Please read Acts Chapter 4, verses 32 through 37. Our purpose is to share what we have and what we accumulate, as much as we are able. God wants me to tell you that He loves you so much, and that He is proud of you, and to thank you for serving Him. Thank You Lord, for your guidance! Please pray for all of our Gospel Artists who work so hard for Him, and want to work even harder, and please pray for our troops, and our country. God Bless. I love you all, with all my heart. Jeannie Jones, Overseer, Fellowship of Christian Artists P.S. We are steadily having many "hits" to our website.That means the website is being visited, and by people from many different states. "Thank You Lord"!
