Rodney is driving the bus right now, which is great for everyone else's prayer life!
We'll be rolling across Tennessee, Arkansas, and then into Texas over the next several hours, and we head toward our first stop in Ft. Worth.

Please pray for the all the concerts, but especially the concert at Southwestern Seminary. Of course, there will be lots of people there from outside the Seminary, but we're hoping the concert will be a special encouragement to the Seminary Students who attend tomorrow night. We are really looking forward to it, and we know our friends who attend will be helping us by showing the students how to enjoy an evening of Gospel Music!

As always, we really appreciate your friendship and your prayers.

Have a blessed weekend!

Gold City News and Schedule

From Gold City's Email Newsletter July 18, 2012

WEEKEND REWIND

We had quite a time at Tony Gore’s Smokey Mountain BBQ last Thursday. Ribs, pulled pork, brisket, chicken–there’s not a bad item on the menu. And when you pair great food with southern gospel quartet music, it’s gotta be good. Tony fed us like we’d been starving for three weeks, and sent us on our way with all sorts of goodies, including the most incredible, from scratch, banana pudding with meringue two inches thick! We would like to make a disclaimer that, although we did eat a lot, we are not responsible for the recent rise in pork and beef prices in East Tennessee–at least we don’t think we are! In all sincerity, a special thanks to Tony for his continued efforts to showcase gospel music at his wonderful restaurant. That evening was the start to a super weekend tour that took us to both of the Carolina states, then back to Tennessee for two Sunday services. We love singing to great folks all across the country, and this week it was a pleasure to be on the bus. We want to give a special shout out to Pastor Chris Moody for the great message and hospitality at South Cleveland Church of God in Cleveland, TN on Sunday morning!

GREAT BIG WEDNESDAY

The Gold City bus is stopping in some exciting places this week! Wednesday, July 18, we will be with all the Unthanks at the 13th Annual Absolutely Gospel Music Fest held at River of Life Church in Smyrna, TN along with Beyond The Ashes, Crystal River, Freedom, and Buddy Jewel. This is going to be a great evening of music FREE to the public! We can’t wait!

SATURDAY AT SONGFEST

Once again, Gold City is honored to be a part of Frank Arnold’s Songfest in Jackson, TN. We’ll be featured on the final night of this annual event, and will be with our friends Dixie Melody Boys, Gordon Mote, Mark Bishop, Aaron Wilburn and the Arnolds. We may even make a stop at Casey Jones Village before we head over to the Civic Center. For all the latest Gold City bus stops, check out our schedule below, visit our website at www.goldcityqt.com or check out our complete list of dates at our booking agency website, www.bsaworld.com.

RADIO UPDATE

Thanks to all of you for making our latest single, "Lord of Life" a Top Ten song. We just found out that it has moved to number 7 for September! This song is hope for anyone who believes.
