Mission Outreaches

To honor our Lord Jesus, and help to feed the hungry and care for orphans,  Testimony Band would like to invite everyone to bring  a canned good or other non-perishable item to our Concerts which we will plan to collect as an ongoing outreach.
We will get these to  Circuit Rider Ministries,  who with Bro. Do Louviere travel regularly to Mexico. They have an Orphanage there,  as  well as a  ministry  to  street  children.This project will be another way that we can all put our resources together, and use every opportunity to  help others in Jesus' Wonderful Name.

Coming Soon

We are currently planning, preparing, and rehearsing
to record our third album-- we still need
funds to complete the budget for it- and we'll let
you know when everything comes together! We're excited
and believe we have some beautiful, inspiring
and exciting music to share for this project.

Bible Outreach

As an ongoing part of our ministry mission, we appreciate
all of you who donate Bibles to give out, or special
funds to purchase them. Each time we have visited
at Youth Detention Centers we have given out approximately
80 Bibles--the kids are so eager for them--it's AWESOME!

You can be a part of sharing God's "Message with the World" by
donating Bibles to give out to those who need them.
Thanks! God Bless!

" Our goal is to honor our Lord Jesus, with what He has given us ~ and to share a positive influence to make a difference in the world. Testimony sings about real life situations, and about the hope and new life that we have found, through a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. "

Rockin' it with the rythm and the rhyme, special tunes like " Promised Land " and " I Want to See You There " point to the hope found in walking with Jesus as Savior and Lord, both for now and for eternity.

" Walk in the Light " speaks to the artificial things in life, and to quote, ' when everything's been said and done,and there's nothing left to say, when the things that fill our lives, have all passed away ~ the only thing that will remain, is the Love of Christ, O help us Lord, to walk in Your Light ! "

" River of Love " tells a special story of a real life prodigal son, and of a vision received upon his sudden, unexpected death, of God the Father receiving him with love in Heaven, as even though he had struggled, he had given his life to Christ and was sincere in his commitment, and had made his peace and returned unto his Father before the end.

Each title in this 11 song Cd release tells a special, true life story. "Turn Back the Tide" calls for a nation to make a spiritual stand for the right, and speaks of families torn apart, children dying, and a world wondering if there is hope to bring peace to the nations. Finding the answer in the Word of God, in II Chronicles 7:14,the song begins with " what's wrong with America . . ." and ends with the refrain and call to action . . .
"so let's turn, turn back the tide ~ run to Jesus, and be healed inside ! "
