An Open Letter From Buzz

Hello to all our friends, fans, followers and family.  Over the many years Beverly and I
have been traveling and serving in our singing ministry, we have met a large number of
people who have become good friends and God has blessed us in ways we cannot
describe.  During the years we have been ministering the Lord has always met our needs
without asking for special consideration or support over and above what donations and
love offerings that were received from concerts.

When we knew the Lord was calling us to start a singing ministry our youngest of four
children was about to move away from home leaving us empty nesters, so to speak.
 
Okay, here we were looking at one another and knowing in our hearts God was leading
us in a direction that we could not financially afford. Why would God call us to
something as costly as a singing ministry. We had no equipment, no way to get it there,
and no members to sing with when we got there!  We didn’t even have an idea where
“there” would be.

In pursuit of this calling we gathered enough equipment to get started, and over a period
of time the Lord made it possible for three other people desiring to sing to meet, and to our
amazement it all came together in a rather short time. Ain’t God Good!  All the time!

 Hauling our equipment in a pickup truck with three cars following, we looked like a
caravan going down the road.  Often getting up at 3 or 4 O’clock on Sunday morning to
make it to the church on time, taking naps on church pews, and changing clothes in
church restrooms, all the while praising God, we were singing!  Later, after re-
mortgaging our home we bought a BUS and updated our equipment, enabling us to
present ourselves in a more professional manner.

I previously mentioned that several good people have come into the group and moved on
to other ministries.  We are honored that God allowed us to share in the preparation for
their ministries and felt this multiplied ours. We give God all the praise for having those
opportunities.

The biggest blessing of all we are still on the road singing after all these years. We serve
with wonderful people who give one hundred percent of themselves, including Parm
Bailey who just recently retired. They never ask for a penny, in fact, they contribute
with monetary donations or tithe on a regular basis, which in part allows Trust Quartet
to continue singing.

Why am I sharing all this with you?  To make it known that Trust Quartet is a non-profit
organization certified with the I.R.S. to receipt you for all donations and tithes.
Therefore, I am qualifying our need for your financial intervention in helping this ministry
continue. The Lord said, “Ye have not because ye ask not.”  Woe be it of me not to ask!
Trust Quartet has no thoughts of quitting or slowing down and with your support we
together will continue in His work touching people by singing songs of praise to our
Lord. As long as He opens doors Trust will walk through them with excitement and joy
in our hearts until HE sees fit for us to no longer continue.

Thank you for your prayers and consideration concerning this matter. Please know that
Trust Quartet truly loves and appreciates all of you who have our interest at heart. We
understand you may not be able to help financially but your support in other ways can be
equally as important, such as sharing us with your friends and recommending Trust
Quartet to churches in your area to sing.

  May God’s Blessings Be Yours!
