Happy Thanksgiving from the Pine Ridge Boys
2019 Thanksgiving Thoughts from the Classic Artists Music Group family.
THE PINE RIDGE BOYS:
The Pine Ridge Boys are thankful for the many blessings that God has given us. We saw tragedy turn into a newer bus. We have seen lives changed through a song. We are blessed over and over again, too much to mention.
Notice that in Psalms 118 it starts with this verse and ends with the same thing:
Psalms 118: 1 O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: because his mercy endures forever.
Psalms 118: 24 This is the day which the Lord hath made; we rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalms 118: 28 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee.
Psalms 118: 29 O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endures forever.
We don’t say this lightly, but we are grateful for what God has done in our own lives.
Happy Thanksgiving from the Sheltons
THE SHELTONS:
This year has been a joyous and blessed year for the Sheltons. We are blessed with family and friends that have been with us every step of the way. We have met so many wonderful people in our travels and concerts. This year we count every mile a blessing as we have seen God touch people through our songs. Since 1959 that has been our mission; to be a blessing with our songs. But today through our songs you bless us with your prayers, support, encouragement and friendship. Thank you!
Happy Thanksgiving from Charlie Griffin
CHARLIE GRIFFIN:
This year I am more aware of how fluid life can be. Our family and traditions are different with the passing of Mom and others in our family. Today, I hold family and friends a bit closer and relish the moments we share. We laugh and play harder; we truly make memories to cherish. In my music and shared word events, I appreciate those who take time to come visit with me. I appreciate their love, friendship, support and encouragement. In my daily journey, I find more blessings than I deserve from God’s saving grace, forgiveness and mercies to having my needs and even desires met in real time. Jeremiah 29:11 holds true on this journey. “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”
Happy Thanksgiving from The Chordsmen Quartet
THE CHORDSMEN QUARTET:
We are so thankful for the grace, love and mercy that God has bestowed upon The Chordsmen Quartet in 2019. We have seen folks saved and blessed through our ministry. He has touched us all in our families, our health and given us the opportunity each day to proclaim the good news of Jesus in song. Our prayer is: “God, hide us behind the cross, so that you can be seen in everything we do.”

Chordsmen Quartet to Hold 3rd Anniversary Sing/ CD Release Concert
Written by Staff on May 5, 2016 – 6:13 pm -
Chordsmen
The Chordsmen are located in Greenville, SC. They consist of Harold Jennings, Jerry Jennings, Stephen Williams and their new baritone, Randy Leslie. They invite you to join them for this very special evening in their career when they will be releasing a brand new project, as well as holding their Third Anniversary Celebration.
When speaking to Jerry last night, he shared this about the upcoming project: “This new project happened all at once. We were approached by The Grissops, a great group of friends that introduced us to our producer, Eddie Howard, who offered us a fantastic deal on a live recording session. I love to just get out of the way and let God handle it all. This is definitely the best project that we have done and we want Him to be glorified.”
It will be a very special night indeed as they honor founding members to Thomas Jennings and his brother, Gary Jennings. Also joining them that night are some former members: Keith “Doc” Jennings, Dale Loudermilk, Don Knight, Bubba Epps, Zack Epps, Ted Brady and Alex Wengerd. Some songs that you can expect to hear that night are: “I Wouldn’t Take Nothing For My Journey Now,” “Somebody Stand Up,” “Whiter Than Snow,” and “I Still Cling To The Old Rugged Cross.”
Their publicist, Andrew Brunet, releases this statement: “The Chordsmen are a great group of men, who truly show their love for God and minister to the lost about the One who died for all of our sins, Jesus Christ.”
You can join them May 21st at New Hope Baptist Church in West Pelzer, South Carolina. They will also be holding a spaghetti dinner for $7. You can find out more information about the Chordsmen on their website, http://facebook.com/ChordsmenQuartet
