Heartfelt Adds A New Sound Technician...

Rob & Carrie Hines

Rob Hines is no stranger to gospel music. Rob ran sound for a very popular Mid-Western group known as The Redemptions. Rob also served as one of their bus drivers too. After leaving The Redemptions Rob and his wife, Carrie, started helping in their local church. It wasn't long until Rob and Carrie and a few other members of their church started their own group called Soul'd Out. Soul'd Out traveled the Midwest for a few years before disbanding early in 2010.

During their years of traveling with Soul'd Out Rob and Carrie would also travel with Heartfelt when their group was not booked. Since Rob was a sound technician he traveled with Heartfelt and we would ask Rob to run sound for them. Rob's wife Carrie would occasionally sing a song during one of Heartfelt's singings. After the group Soul'd Out disbanded it was only logical for Rob and Carrie to join Heartfelt and that's exactly what happened.

Rob and wife Carrie are very active in their home church, Rose of Sharon Church in Desoto, MO, where Rob can be found running sound for the church and his wife Carrie singing in the Praise and Worship service when they are not traveling with Heartfelt.

Please join Heartfelt in welcoming Rob & Carrie Hines to our ministry. We are so glad to bring Rob on board as our sound technician and to have Carrie minister in song with us. Make sure and tell Rob and Carrie how much you appreciate them at one of Heartfelt's upcoming concerts or let them know when you sign our Guestbook.

HEARTFELT HAPPENINGS MAY 2010

Brad Chapman is the newest addition to Heartfelt, playing drums. Brad is a veteran of Gospel Music having played with several of the Midwest’s more popular groups Brad began his music career in 1981, playing drums for the Durbins. It was during this time that Brad would not only hone his skills playing in concert settings but also would be afforded the opportunity to play on several recording sessions, allowing him to learn different styles. He soon would capture the attention of the Lesters, who would ask Brad to travel with them on several extended tours, filling in on drums.

In 1989, Brad would help form the group, Solid Gospel. He would be the original drummer for the group but in 1991, he would move to the bass guitar, showing his versatility as a musician. In 1994, he would take a short break from the road but would soon find himself traveling once again as a part of Crimson Gold. Here, he would once again serve as drummer and later bass guitarist for the group.

For the last couple of years, Brad has been a part of the Christian Country group, Red River, serving as both bass player and vocalist. He and wife Teresa are very active in their home church, Journey Community Church in Herculaneum, MO, where Brad can be found playing for the Praise and Worship band when he is not traveling with Heartfelt.

Please join Heartfelt in welcoming Brad & Teresa Chapman to our ministry. We are so proud to bring Brad on board as our drummer. Make sure and tell Brad and Teresa how much you appreciate them at one of Heartfelt's upcoming concerts or let them know when you sign our Guestbook.

HEARTFELT HAPPENINGS AUGUST 2005
Heartfelt would like to take this moment to sincerely thank everyone for their support and prayers over the past 27 years. Heartfelt has had a few obstacles placed before them this year, but by the grace of God we have made it through them all. Satan came with sickness, death, financial difficulties and other road blocks to hinder our ministry. John 10:10 says "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." We would like to report that through all the hardships, God has truly affirmed that abundant life in each member of Heartfelt. We look forward to seeing you at one of singings soon.

HEARTFELT HAPPENINGS JULY 2005
!! PRAISE REPORT !!
For over 25 years Gary Dean had no right kidney according to his doctor. The doctors told him his right kidney was damaged at birth and never developed into a functional organ. Gary went to the doctor in July for another problem he was having and they performed and ultrasound (no, he's not pregnant) of his abdomen. Gary informed the attending doctor about the missing kidney so he would not be alarmed when he saw it wasn't there. While performing the ultrasound the doctor said I don't know where you got your information but the information was wrong. He told Gary you have two fully functioning kidneys. Praise God!! Not only did he receive word of this miracle, the tests they were performing came back positive with no trace of any cancer. GOD IS STILL ON THE THRONE!!
