Program was a unique, moving experience

To the Editor:

My wife and I were richly blessed at a recent presentation of a unique ministry called “Let Heaven and Nature Sing” before a packed auditorium at the Music Road Hotel in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. This one-of-a-kind ministry is designed and intended for Christians (along with others) in hopes of sharing the “Glory of God” in a special way using biblical references, inspiring comments, outstanding professional quality music, and world class nature photography.

The fantastic music included a wide variety of well-known Christian songs carefully selected and beautifully arranged by Judy Felts. Lee Porter thrilled the audience with his smooth tenor voice and his skill playing the acoustical guitar. Judy, an accomplished keyboardist, joined in as a vocalist. The heart of the program centered around Ken Jenkins who provided his acclaimed photographic images on the big screens, coordinated with the music. Prior to each song, Ken shared God’s word, inspiring quotes, and his own well-chosen comments pertaining to the Glory of God’s Creation.

We are inspired and motivated to continue helping develop a similar ministry, “Creation Calls,” that will afford an opportunity for others in WNC to experience “God of Wonders” in a special way.
