Green Forest, AR

What a GREAT weekend in Green Forest, AR!  Saturday night we played at Cattleman's Restaurant and Sunday morning we played at the Green Forest Cowboy Church.  What a blessing it was to not only use our talents to spread God's message but it was also amazing to be in such beautiful country.  As Marlon says, "Arkansas is God's country" and we happen to agree!  Thank you to Loree and Bro. Bill for hosting us!  A big THANK YOU to the congregation of Green Forest Cowboy Church for purchasing 29 CDs!  We are truly grateful for that!
