Before meeting Elder Carl Roberson four years ago in Philadelphia, PA, she wrote rap and R&B music.At the time Pastor Roberson was with a group called "Soul Gospel Singers".

She has completed one album for the group "Free Style Fanatics", and "Saving Souls Part I and II " for her husband, Elder Carl Roberson, and is presently working on a single for another Artist. Cutrenna says, " I enjoy working with the Holy Spirit, and allowing the Holy Spirit to lead in what I write. I received various awards, Savings Bonds, and news media publicity when I was in High School, making me believe in myself and my writing ability. My brother encouraged me to to begin writing music in the late 90's. God has truly been a blessing in my life. At times when I may get discouraged in my writing, God continues to lead me on. Because God has given me the gift of writing I know I must not bury it. I thank God for the "Fellowship of Christian Artists" website. They are about helping each other in unison, and that is what all Christians need to do in order to be a Helper for the Lord." Cutrenna resides in Camden, Delaware. Call Cutrenna if you are looking for original music for your new album, or just for a single that comes from a loving Christian heart. Cell # 302-290-8615 Email: caperscutrenna@yahoo.com

Christal Kahles Poet, Author, Speaker, Songwriter, Evangelist "Keeping the Dream Alive" Philippians 3:4 Christal is a very gifted author and speaker who began writing at the age of 11, when "special needs" kept her somewhat isolated from the public. Christal's love for the Lord and for others prompted her to dream of one day being a published author. The Lord saw that her dream came to completion fifteen years later with her book "In the Garden". It is a lovely book about the strength that comes from the Lord when we need it most. Christal believes her book is a miracle, a gift from God. Knowing that people with "special needs" as she is, are never expected to do something so unlikely as to write a book, Christal is a testimony in herself as to the loving Power of God! Her book has sold many copies, and touched many lives in so many ways. Christal and her Mom Julie now travel together, Christal telling others of the wonderful ways God has worked miracles in her life, with Julie there to support her, and use her own Evangelism tools to reach out in song. The message is always the same, "God's Grace Is Sufficient". Their home base is Cinncinati, Ohio. Please visit their website: www.christalkahles.com

Carol Collins Gospel Music Songwriter and Composer See that Joy? That is Carol! She always has a joyful way about her. What an advertisement for the Joy Of The Lord! This picture was snapped at a gathering of friends and Gospel Artists. She doesn't like her picture taken, but gave us permission to use it for FCA. Her husband Bud is beside her, as he always is, supporting her in everything she does, and everything she does is for our Lord. She has written and composed 77 Gospel songs as of today! She receives new ones from God almost on a daily basis. She has had two of them recorded and played on the radio, "God's Soldiers" and "Fire In My Feet", wonderful songs! They both reached number one status on Radioactive Airplay, "God's Soldiers" being the number one Country Gospel song downloaded by DJ's for 3 weeks! She is very family oriented, but God is number one in her life. In her words "Every song I write is a miracle". She plays the piano to write her songs, but doesn't know how to play chords, though her hands fly over those keys. She says "The Lord takes over my hands". If you are looking for an original song, please contact her. She doesn't sing, so wants singers to have her songs, so they will be heard. Contact her at spokes@directv.net
