Last Week’s Happenings

• Crossroads Label Group honored Lauren Talley for her #1 debut on Billboard’s Top Christian Inspirational Album Chart, April 1, 2017, for her album The Gospel. This is the first album in the history of Crossroads to appear at the top of this particular chart.
• Surrendered, a trio based in Gadsden, Alabama, announced the addition of vocalist Tiffany Hamilton. She replaces Sadie Renae, who departs after a two-year tenure.

Prayer Requests

• Please pray for the continually improving health of concert promoter and cancer patient Ray Flynn. After receiving radiation treatments earlier this year, Flynn’s most recent numbers indicate his cancer has dropped to an undetectable level.
• Please pray for country singer and annual gospel music fest host Loretta Lynn who suffered a stroke last week. A full recovery is expected.
