Second Concert, Hazelbank, Coleraine...

The second concert and CD release 'He Made The Way' was held in Hazelbank Presbyterian church, Coleraine. Taking part along with Solid ground was Mrs Iris Evans and Mr Nigel Davidson singing and Mr Peter McIlreavy on the saxophone. It was a blessed night of praise and challenge as Pastor Lawrence Kennedy chaired the evening. Supper was provided by some of the ladies at Hazelbank and to the Rev. Alan Johnston and his Kirk Session we want to say a big thank you for allowing us to use their premises for the evening. A special word of thanks to Robert & Margaret for all their support and organising. All the proceeds from the evening was to raise support for Jonny, Julie & Ben Pollock as they seek to return soon to Mexico City with OMS International.

Concert & CD Release, Cullybackey

Some images from the concert...




An amazing night of praise from start to finish! Those of you close to Solid Ground will know that there was a last minute scare in that the CD's did not arrive in Northern Ireland until Friday morning but after much prayer all went according to plan. Peter McIlreavy, who owns Gracenotes Music Centre in Ballymena, came and gave us an exhibition of his store and also played some music as people arrived for the concert. Solid Ground opened the evening followed by William Sayers, The Monteith Family and Kathryn Mitchell. Mrs Robin McKinnon from OMS International brought greetings from the 'field of Mexico' and a challenge to all about our stewardship. Jonny & Julie Pollock gave a short presentation on their work in Mexico City and talked about their call to return to continue the work God has called them to. Ben also made an appearence and took the evening in his stride with many wanting to see the beautiful baby. There was around 250 in attendance at the concert with Pastor Alan Hoey bring the evening to a close with a few thoughts from Psalm 23.
