After visiting a senior resort in Yucaipa, His Voice journeyed up the mountain on Highway 38 towards Big Bear Lake. About halfway up the winding highway, the caravan turned off and drove into the enchanting area of Forest Falls, 'Little Yosemite.' The tiny Seventh-day Adventist church is nestled snugly in the woods and as His Voice stepped over the threshold they were greeted with the unmistakable warmth of Christian fellowship.

With the aroma of pine filling the little sanctuary, His Voice began their concert a Capella circling the country congregation (above) as they sang their first hymn. Following the soulful sounds of men's voices blending into harmony, His Voice pianists Sonia Dias and Joyce Leal and organist Karen Knight with Director Mike Naluai (below) joined in the Sabbath serenade.
The afternoon vespers concert continued past sun set as His Voice ended their March concert day appropriately with 'No More Night.' It was the pleasure of the men's chorus to share with the mountain congregation some of Heaven's music, a generous supper, and the warmth of new friendships.
