A nice surprise arrived in my inbox yesterday from Ric Sieben at Compassion International. More video in support of Third World Symphony!
Take a look while I pack for a concert in Edmond, Oklahoma and a video shoot (with bacon) at Ann’s place in O Canada.
Thanks, Ric! See you soon, bacon…I mean, Ann!

Wow, I remember reading a blog you posted about this conversation with this man. It’s even more powerful to hear you tell it, I cried. I believe with all my heart that God is going to accomplish much through this album for His kingdom. Many blessings to you and yours Shaun! ~ Melody Joy
Shaun Groves says:
Thanks for the encouragement, Melody!
Beth says:
I was just talking about this very thing the other day with the program director of my local Christian radio station. She can’t wait to hear your new CD and talk to you about it. This station plays as little “big mac” music as possible. I still cry (I mean my allergies act up), every time I hear this story.

And our boys here on the funny farm say… See you soon, Mr. Groves! We’ll get the bacon on — and see if we can help you with the hair at all ๐
All is grace ๐

Do I even have to say it?
Tears.
JD says:
No words… only love.
Julie says:
Great story and a great video. We’re SO looking forward to having you in Edmond tomorrow! I just finished baking some cookies for lunch tomorrow. ๐
Kris says:
Goosebumps. Will be getting my copy soon. *tears*
Andrea says:
That’s a great video! I like it so much, I shared it on my blog today!
Lynn says:
Shaun — Love the music! Just a wee word about the title…it needs a hyphen between the words third and world….Third-World Symphony. Yup. Otherwise it can read as Third World-Symphony which, of course, is not the title. The hyphen hooks Third and World together……

Adam says:
Wow, what a wonderful punch in the face. I feel like I need those reality checks all the time. Thanks for sharing. What a beautiful and honest elder that shared the truth with your, the impact he had on you will translate to you reaching many with the music he inspired you to write.
Beautiful!
Cheri says:
It was a special worship session today as I was driving to work. Third World Symphony is in the house or should I say car! Received happy mail yesterday!
Shelly Miller says:
Shaun, I have a special place in my heart for Rwanda. Been there many times. Understand that man’s comment and can’t wait to hear what the Lord has given you! Blessings.
Patrick McDonald says:
Thanks for sharing the deep work that Christ is doing in your own heart through music and worship. The radiance of Jesus in you is encouraging and inspires me to live in the flow of the abundant Christ-life. Keep telling the simple story of Jesus in the world today.

Pray without ceasing
Give thanks in everything” I Thes 5:16-18
