It is hard to believe that I started with N1M on November 12, 2021. It hasn't been two months yet! The very first person to join my Network was Vera from Saskatchewan, Estevan; CANADA. Amazing. I am trying very hard to thank each and every one of you when you join the Network or recommend a song, but to say that this is snowballing is such an understatement. I am 9 pages (two sided paper) behind right now, so if I have not personally thanked you yet, or gotten to your prayer request in writing, I am lifting you all up in prayer and I am very grateful for your support of this music ministry. I try to get to the most urgent prayer requests first. It would help me if you typed the word URGENT at the beginning of your message. We are doing outstanding on the N1M CHARTS, especially considering how new I am to this platform. This most recent week, number one in: Contemporary Christian, Musical Theatre, and Holiday Also doing quite well in Alternative. I moved Bound Up River to the genre of Christian Country, Our Mission to Christian, and Neon Town to Christian Pop, so it should be interesting to see the results. I left a Prayer of Thanks in the Children's genre but I am not sure that is where it should be. Would welcome your opinions. I love that song. It is about my daughter and I. It is not a song that kids would sing. As you may have noticed but now, I have added new songs, most importantly they is one that I just wrote and recorded called ACCORDING TO THY WORD. I had to sing at a Christmas festival and I said yes before I realized that all of the Christmas songs that I have written were written for full choir, not solos. It was too late to cancel. I sat down at my desk with my Bible open and prayed. Opened to Luke 1:26-55. I wrote the lyrics first ... Well, I didn't write the lyrics.... The Holy Spirit did 2000 years ago. I just took what was written and condensed into a song format. Then I went to the piano and prayed again! So, if you haven't listened, please do. If you have, I would like to know what you think? Have just added one album, Dancing on the Thunder, to Spotify and iTunes. Testing it out with Distrokid, before we transfer everything. In the final stages of getting the Website up and running. It is a lot of work! Just a reminder that I have 6 videos on YouTube. Please subscribe. I am also on SoundCloud where I have more music and the complete audio version of the musical, Forever Jubilee. Everything is ASCAP PROTECTED. Please no unauthorized usage. This is personal. I had who I thought was my best friend in the world, steal one of my songs, change the title and port it on a compilation album. A so called "apostle". The apostle Ann Sampson. She now goes by the end time revelator, or end time Sampson. What kind of a Christian steals a song? She even stole the entire contents of my art gallery and apartment while I was in the hospital. That is another Newsletter. This last month several of my songs and drama scenes from the musical have been heard on Loud Cry Radio, The Rac Man Show, and Note Spire Radio. I have hired a dialogue coach to fix areas of the script in the musical and integrate the third act so that the actors from Act I and II will be included in Act III, not just for the curtain calls. Nathan McConnell is helping with the story boards and George Call is the guitarist on According to Thy Word. Check on your local stations for my friend's ( and board director ) radio series, Brinkman Adventures. It is about the early settlers to America and the Mayflower Compact. It is very well written. Please keep praying as things move forward regarding turning the musical into a movie for the big screen, and as a write the book to both support it with documentation of the prophecies presented and the miracles that happened and the challenges along the way. Please use discernment in this hour. Even when someone says they are a Christian even on this platform, look at their pictures, read their lyrics. Just because someone sings about a Christian theme or common prayer, doesn't mean that they believe that Jesus Christ is the One Way, the truth and the light. Examine everything through the microscope of the Word of God. I was going to recommend a song and then I caught a glimpse of one of the pictures. It was a real eye opener. I asked this person directly if they believed that Jesus was the Messiah, the Son of God. I was told that there are many ways and many teachers.... I commented back that in the last days Jesus warned of many false gods and many false teachers. So please, use discernment. That is it for now. I pray for all of you to have a glorious New Year. Ana
