Friday afternoon, April 10, 2015, His Voice journeyed several hours north by private and public transportation to the great state of Nevada for a weekend of praise concerts around Las Vegas.
.
First stop was at the Living Water Fellowship for a vesper's concert with Pastor Tammy Losey and her church family which meets at the Green Valley United Methodist Church on Robindale Road in Henderson.
.
Bright and early the next morning, the men and families of His Voice headed for the Las Vegas Mountain View Seventh-day Adventist Church on Oakey Blvd for two Sabbath morning worship concerts with Pastor BJ Boles. After a delightful potluck including pizza, salad and more served by the ladies of the church, His Voice headed south to the Lake Mead Health and Rehabilitation Center on Henderson's East Lake Mead Drive where the Living Water Fellowship church have their regular Sabbath afternoon outreach. A couple of the lady residents enthusiastically thanked His Voice for their inspirational music that
"Blessed me from the top of my head to the tip of my toes!"
.
The sun was lowering in the Nevada desert when His Voice arrived at the uniquely decorated Las Vegas Paradise Seventh-day Adventist Church sanctuary on Sandhill Road. It was the last night of their evangelistic crusade and up front was a colorful life-sized model of the Old Testament Hebrew sanctuary. The evening was hosted by Pastor Peter Neri and Pastor Julio Juarez skillfuly weaved his personal story and the Gospel story together encouraging congregants and visitors alike to step forward in faith.
.
His Voice proclaimed the Good News of Jesus at three of the dozen plus Adventist worship communities around Las Vegas. Each church family was unique and welcoming . . . from the Living Water Fellowship vesper concert Friday evening, to the Mountain View Adventist Church double worship concert the next morning, to the Paradise Adventist church evangelistic final evening concert Saturday evening. The effort it took to get there paled in comparison with the blessing received by both singers and listeners alike! Indeed the Master's Voice was heard mighty and strong, victorious in Vegas!
