AND Last, but definitely not least...
My very own hubby is going to be there...

Jack has also written numerous songs, his latest recorded by Newsong which is on their Rescue album. He's also the lead singer of the band Jupiter Wind and is working with Dale Oliver (Nashville) who is the producer for Casting Crowns and other top name groups. Recently, Christianity Today gave their three song CD a 4 star review. Jupiter Wind and Dale Oliver recently had a new CD released and their song He's Alive was chosen to be one of the tracks for the new movie called 33HOPE (www.33hope.com), the "sequel" to Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ. 33HOPE picks up where the Passion left off (the resurrection) and goes through the ascension.
