CORONADO ISLAND ADVENTURE


Heading to Coronado Island
 After a morning worship concert at the San Diego Clairemont Adventist Church, the men and families of His Voice headed across the bridge to the Coronado Island Marriott Hotel, Saturday afternoon, November 1, 2014, where the Adventist Medical Evangelism Network (A.M.E.N.) convention attendees were just finishing up a week together. It was a little after 4:00 PM, when His Voice began singing, signaling for conventioneers to head in for the evening meeting.  Below are a few photos from that event.

PARADISE VILLAGE HOSTS HIS VOICE

The sunny winter day of November 10, 2012, was just about over as the men and families of His Voice stepped into the elegant lobby of Paradise Village, a south San Diego senior resort-style retirement community, located on 4th Street in National City.  His Voice were there in concert at the Grand Opening of Paradise Village, over three years ago.

Before the evening concert in Liberty Hall Theater started at 7:00 PM, His Voice gathered together for their annual membership meeting, treating themselves to a delicious family buffet catered by the Paradise Village restaurant.  

It was good to be together, singers with their families, sharing favorite Scriptures, newly elected officers, and new ideas for the year to come.

As the concert time neared, Harry Bennett, chaplain of the senior community, welcomed the men's chorus and an evening of praise began with director and His Voice founder Michael Naluai leading the men in was their last concert of 2012.  Jerry Albritton, no stranger to the National City scene, accompanied the men's chorus on the piano in grand style. 

Following the concert, residents and their guests were given His Voice's CDs and encouraged to join the men's chorus in their mission to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ one CD at a time.

SINGING IN A HEAVENLY LANGUAGE

His Voice "Singing God's Love ..."

DoubleTree Hotel on Hotel Circle - San Diego
Program for Asian-Pacific Worker's Meeting
Sunday evening, August 26, 2012, the men of His Voice journeyed into San Diego County  to present an inspirational concert for the opening of the Asian-Pacific Ministries worker's meetings being held at the DoubleTree Hilton Hotel on Hotel Circle in San Diego.  
 
The Asian-Pacific Ministries is a part of the Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists which covers a five-state area, including conferences in Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, and Hawaii.  The Asian-Pacific Ministries Department is an outreach  to all Asian and South Pacific Island groups, including Burmese, Cambodians, Chinese, Fijians, Filipinos, Hmong, Indonesians, Japanese, Karens, Korean, Laotians, Nepalese, Samoans, Thai, Tongans, and Vietnamese. 
 
So it was notable that Hawaiian His Voice Director Michael Naluai and Filipino and Japanese members of the men's chorus plus men from many other areas beyond and within the United States share the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the heavenly language of song with this diverse group.  
 
His Voice Pianist Jerry Albritton accompanied the men's chorus on a keyboard opening the three day ministerial meetings on Sunday night beginning with "Holy, Holy, Holy" and ending with "No More Night." Soloists included Director Michael Naluai, Mario Roche, Harold Van Dyke, Ron Tkalec, and Don Troyer. His Voice Pianist Jerry Albritton accompanied the men's chorus at the keyboard. Over one hundred ministers and their spouses were expected and each one present was handed a special  "His Voice Sandwich" - a pack of two His Voice CDs with a prayer/donation envelope in between for prayer requests and an opportunity for listeners to share in the mission of His Voice of sharing the gospel through music and improving education conditions for orphans in Baja, Mexico.   It really is all about, "Singing God's Love, Following His Voice."
 
NEXT CONCERTS: Saturday, September 8, 2012, 11:00 AM at the Loma Linda Thai Seventh-day Adventist Church, 10855 New Jersey Street.

SINGING FOR TIM & JANA

Timothy John Bresenden, 1972 - 2010
(Double click on picture for enlargement)
.
January 9, 2010, the men of His Voice journeyed to Mission Bay in San Diego to share in the memorial celebration for Tim Bresenden, husband of Jana Naluai Bresender, Mike & Debbie's daughter.

Tim was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in 2005 while living in China. He and Jana moved to Southern California to be near friends and family and pursue treatment to extend Tim's life. A multitude of prayers surrounded the little Bresenden family of five for the next four years but finally on New Year's Day, Tim passed to his rest at home surrounded by those he loved.

Every month for the past five years, His Voice has traveled to the far corners of Southern California and beyond to share what they love about Jesus. In one concert day, they sing two or three hour-long concerts with a variety of songs but this time, Saturday morning at the Bahai Resort Hotel banquet room in Mission Bay/San Diego, the men of His Voice sang just one song, "No More Night."
.
Of all the concerts His Voice has given, singing this song for Tim and Jana and their families was the biggest and best. The message of hope touched hearts and as the song ended, friends stood in honor of Tim. The pictures above are just a few of many that were taken that weekend but they tell the story of His Voice sharing in the grand celebration of the life of a Christian gentleman named Tim.

NO MORE NIGHT by Walter Harrah

"The timeless theme, Earth and Heaven will pass away. It’s not a dream, God will make all things new that day. Gone is the curse from which I stumbled and fell. Evil is banished to eternal hell. No more night. No more pain. No more tears. Never crying again. And praises to the great "I AM." We will live in the light of the risen Lamb.

"See all around, now the nations bow down to sing. The only sound is the praises to Christ, our King. Slowly the names from the book are read. I know the King, so there’s no need to dread. No more night. No more pain. No more tears. Never crying again. And praises to the great "I AM." We will live in the light of the risen Lamb.

"See over there, there’s a mansion, oh, that’s prepared just for me, Where I will live with my Savior eternally. No more night. No more pain. No more tears. Never crying again. And praises to the great "I AM." We will live in the light of the risen Lamb. All praises to the great "I AM."We’re gonna live in the light of the risen Lamb."
