• Susan Unthanks Memorial Award  (I was so surprised and honored to receive this special recognition.  She was a remarkable lady.)

I had the privilege of co-hosting the award show with my sweet friend, Sonya Isaacs Yeary.  No one can say that two blondes can’t co-host an award show!  We actually made it through without giggling the entire night! LOL.  I sincerely want to thank Deon Unthanks and his family for an incredible evening.   

It’s hard to believe that Singing In The Sun is next week!  (April 17-21 – Myrtle Beach, SC.)  This is an event that you will want to attend.  Last year 205 people were saved.  Each night is filled with the very best in Southern Gospel Music and Special Speakers like Dr. David Jeremiah, Dr. Jonathan Falwell, Ricky Skaggs and several others.  There will also be showcases throughout the day.  We’ve also expanded the seating areas, so there are tickets available.  Be sure to log on www.abrahamproductions.net or call 1-888-238-6858 and order your tickets today!   

Abraham Productions is going on a cruise to the Caribbean! (November 11-17.)  We’ll be leaving from Ft. Lauderdale, FL and sailing to Key West, FL,  Grand Caymen Islands, and Ocho Rios, Jamaica.  KPNR, Jeff & Sheri Easter, Ivan Parker, The Talleys, The Whisnants, The Hoppers, The Harvesters, The Chapelaires and Rev. Jon Bowman will all be there.  We would love for you to sign up with KPNR as your hosts.  For booking information you can go to http://www.paradisetoursandtravel.com/cruise.php?CruiseID=11 or call 1-888-495-7828.  The cabins are going fast so be sure to reserve your cabin with a deposit as soon as possible.  They have payment plans if you’d like. 

We want to say a very special “Thanks!” to all of the DJs for playing “Mighty Big God”.  It’s currently #4 and hopefully moving up!  “Thanks everyone!” for calling your local radio station and requesting it.  Sonya Isaacs Yeary and her hubby, Jimmy, wrote the song! 
 
We sincerely pray that the Lord is blessing your lives and answering your prayers.  He is so faithful.  It is an honor to serve Him.  Please continue to pray for KPNR!  Come and see us when you can. 

 Love you,

Karen

SGM Fan Award recipients are decided upon solely by Southern Gospel music fans. Open nominations for the 2012 SGM Fan Awards were accepted during the month of January 2012 in the first of two rounds of voting. As a result of your nominations, this is the second and final ballot, listing the top five finalists in 22 categories.  (Be sure to cast your final votes! http://www.christianvoicemagazine.com/sgmvote.html )

Awards will be given as winners are announced at the 2012 SGM Fan Awards program presented by Christian Voice Magazine on May 3, 2012, during the 8th annual SGM FanFair in Pigeon Forge, TN.

We are very excited and honored to receive two          Dove Award Nominations!
Album:  Reach Out
Country Song:  Good Things Are Happening
We worked very hard on this album and are thankful to all of those who voted.  (KPNR is about serving the Lord and doing His work, however, we love it when we feel that people are connecting with our songs!) 

We had a great time on the “Singing at Sea” cruise last week.  It averaged in the upper 70s, making the weather absolutely perfect.  It was a special treat to have Rickey’s momma and friend, Jean, with us.  They had a blast!  We will be going back to the Bahamas in February of 2013.  If you want to go with us just send us an email.  (newriver@windstream.net) Be sure to tell Templeton Tours that you are signing up with KPNR.

As always we want to say a very special thanks to all the DJ’s for playing our music.  We just found out that “Mighty Big God” is #16.  Yay!  Also, we want to thank everyone for calling into your local radio stations and requesting it.

Abraham Productions is gearing up for the Singing In The Sun concerts starting April 17 and running through April 21 in Myrtle Beach, SC.  This is an event you will not want to miss!  You can purchase tickets at: www.abrahamproductions.net KPNR will be there on Saturday night. Keep in mind Abraham Productions features the finest in Southern Gospel Music along with the greatest speakers.  At the 2011 event, 205 people were saved!  I’m getting so excited about being there!

We are already casting our votes for the 2012 SGMA Hall of Fame   Inductees.  The SGMA Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and the Singing   News Fan Awards will be October 3 at Dollywood.
