*******************************************************

1) Write a Song…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The most important holiday is coming up. Paul
wrote that if Jesus wasn’t raised from the dead,
our faith would be futile. Very few question His
crucifixion, but many don’t believe that Jesus
rose from the dead.

I thought it would be fitting to encourage
people of all ages to write a song from their
own heart with the cross and/or resurrection of
Christ as the theme.

The primary incentive should be that it pleases
God when we focus our hearts on Him and
appreciate all He has done for us. As another
incentive, I’m again providing a platform for
these songs to be shared and voted on. All the
information is at the website –
http://worshipguitarclass.com/contest.html

This time I’m trying 3 categories: kids, adults
and songs of other languages.


2) Book 2 shipping…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Book 2 of the Worship Guitar Class DVD is
available now and at the website. There are
books of volumes one and two to facilitate
teaching worship guitar classes. For ideas on
how to teach a worship guitar class, here is an
article at the website –

You can also find a new article there on how to
buy a good used guitar. Is there another topic
that you would be interested in reading? Just
let us know.

The books are available here –
http://worshipguitarclass.com/products.html

3) New Articles and Suggestions?…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Last year I received such great feedback and
suggestions from the solutions to sore fingers
emails. I recently posted all the suggestions in an
article at the blog – jeanwelles.com.


4) In Closing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The world isn’t so sure of the resurrection, but
it’s probably the best documented event in
history. It is certainly the most important
event in history!

Worship Him with all your heart, because
He loves you with all of His!

In His Love,
Jean Welles

WORSHIP CONTEST STORIES
*************************************************

Bethany Worship storiesBethany Waters send
me her picture with the
new guitar and DVDs.
Thought it would be fun
to share with you. God
is so gracious. They only
sent the contest website
to a few friends, but
somehow the email was
circulated and then
someone posted it on
their Homeschool Website.

Bethany was surprised to
receive calls and emails from
people who heard her song.
It was also exciting to hear
that the Women’s Bible Study
at their church decided to use Bethany’s song.
She was 11.

I praise God for all the children that wrote
songs and I just couldn’t take them down.
Those that wanted to stay are still up at –
Kids Worship Contest Sep-2006

The adults are still up too. Many have CD’s and
I’ve made their names clickable so you may
visit their sites and perhaps pick up a CD for
Christmas. –
September 2006-Worship Guitar

Paulie Heath and Richard Paseck both sent me
CD’s and although I don’t usually play CD’s
very often I’ve nearly worn them both out.
Great music!

*************************************************
ISAAC KING, A LIFE DEDICATED TO JESUS
*************************************************

isaac-kingOne of the songs submitted
to the contest was from a
dad whose son, Isaac, just
died in September. Isaac is
20 and I wanted to honor
him and give you a chance
to know him.

We are family and I know
there are a number of you
that know what’s it’s like
to miss your loved one
during the holidays.


My friend, Sherry Conroy,
a professional editor, has
written a beautiful article about Isaac’s extraordinary
walk with Christ. You can read it and hear
Isaac’s song at the blog – jeanwelles.com

Dale King, his Dad, is offering Isaac’s CD for
a donation of any amount and it would be kind
for some of you to express your love for our
brother Dale. His contact email is at the blog.

IN CLOSING
*************************************************

Worship Him with all of your heart because He

Jesus was born on earth for the sole purpose
of dying at the cross for us. He loves us so
much that he paid the price for all our sins
in that one act.

Now, in Christ, death is swallowed up. Although
it’s hard to lose wonderful people like Isaac
on this side of Heaven, we will soon be
together forever, in new bodies.

You can tell Isaac that you read about him
on Jean’s blog. I’m looking forward to meeting
him, and all of you. Do you suppose we can
do a big group hug in Heaven?

loves you with all of His.

God Bless,
Jean Welles

1) Happy Valentines Day…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day. God loves you so much!
In Scripture it says:

” How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be
called the children of God!” 1John 3:1

What pictures do you see when you read that verse? I think of the
prodigal son. His Father gave him the best robe, a ring for his finger,
sandals on his feet and a big party. Every day is Valentine’s Day in
God’s eyes.

2) The Untouchables #3…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What is God doing today in Mori, India? It’s pretty exciting! The article is
now up at the blog, JeanWelles.com.. I think you’ll LOVE it.

3) Christian Guitar & Bass Convention…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ll be teaching at a Christian Guitar Convention in Manhattan Beach, CA
on March 4th. Phil Keaggy is performing on that night, and several teachers
will be giving classes.

4) Stores in Singapore…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I just got an email today from Life BookShops in Singapore. They said
my DVD’s, Jean Welles Worship Guitar Class, is now available from
their 9 shops. Apparently it took months for the licensing to be approved.
For those of you in Singapore, the DVD’s are now available locally in 10 stores.
worshipguitarclass.com/stores/singapore.html

5) In Closing…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’m hoping to get another teaching video up at the blog soon. I’ll let you know

opened up and I’ve had time to film more of DVD 4. It’s still a couple months
away, but coming…

Worship Him with all your heart, because He loves you with all of His!

In HIM,
Jean Welles

RESPONSE FROM HIS THOUGHTS OUTNUMBER THE SAND
*************************************************

We have an amazing God! In the last Newsletter I shared
some of my thought on Psalm 139:16-17:

“How precious are Your thoughts towards me, O God!
How great is the sum of them! If I should count them,
they would be more in number than the sand”

Tami Benson sent in an email that there are 5000
grains of sand in a teaspoon! Cheryl Perry sent a
wonderful beach photo with the Scripture.

The photo and both emails are at the blog, http://jeanwelles.com
Tami also shares an inexpensive gift idea around this
Scripture. It’s at the end of the post. You’ll need to
click the ‘more’ link.

Remember to worship Him with all your heart because He
loves you with all of His!

God Bless,
Jean Welles
