Good morning. I figured you would be at work so I thought I’d write you an email. We made it home,,,,soooo tired but got unpacked and clothes washed and ready for another week.

As you know, I have been talking to you a lot lately and feeling that my traveling days are numbered. I do not want to be a stumbling block for YH ministry. I want to let this be as a notice that with my health issues, traveling is getting very hard. I feel at this time, I can come off the road for a bit, try to get my issues worked out and then I could make my own schedule as to what is going on with my progress and wouldn’t hinder or be obligated to something or someone else. I will help you in doing more local things but right now, traveling is just out of the question for me. I do not want you to ever STOP your ministry and YH. I feel you have too much to share with people to do that. I will definitely help with dates that I feel I can. Just wanted to give you time to try to find someone to fill in for you on the dates I can’t fulfill.

We will talk later and work something out for the dates you have already.

PLEASE know that I write this with anticipation and sadness. I have enjoyed traveling with you and getting to know you better.

Darlene

It says in Romans chapter 11, “The calling of God is without repentance.”  I’ve seen many changes in life over the past couple of years.  But, I have to say whatever may come, whatever may go- I still choose to follow the calling God has given me.

Effective May 1st, both Noel Walters and Darlene Chapman will be stepping down from Young Harmony.  Darlene has been having some heath issues and is currently facing back surgery causing it very hard to travel. Noel will be leaving the road in order to spend time with his family.  Both Darlene and Noel have been a major blessing to the group, long time friends and will be greatly missed.  Please pray for each of us as we all continue serving the Lord, separately.

I will continue doing revivals and concerts, and will go wherever God sends me.  To schedule dates, go to JohnathanBond.com or YoungHarmony.com.

Thank you for your prayers,
Hope to see you soon.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

"For GOD so LOVED the world, that HE gave HIS only begotten SON, that whosoever believeth in HIM should not perish, but have everlasting LIFE!"  John 3:16 (KJV)

CHRISTMAS is more than just a holiday that is set aside for giving and receiving gifts.  December is more than just a month of great sales and beautiful lights.  It is a time that has been set aside to celebrate the most precious gift of all, and that is the birth of our SAVIOR!  So, as you open your Christmas gifts this year, as you spend quality time with the ones that you love, take time to remember why you are even able to celebrate.  It’s all because of JESUS!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS, and thank you for giving love, life, joy, peace and so much more!!

I know that this would be a great time to remind you of our brand new CD, or maybe remind you that you could still give a tax deductible gift; but I would rather offer you a gift.  You know how sometimes you get a free gift, but you have to pay the shipping and handling?  Well, that is sort of what I am talking about here.  I am giving you the opportunity to hear the new Crossway single, UNFAILING LOVE!!  AMAZING!! I honestly think it is the best song that I have ever heard!  Great lyrics, great message, great vocals!  (I hate these guys…not really, they are good guys!)  All that you have to do is click below and pay just under a $1.00 for shipping and handling…lol

Click here to download the new single for .99¢!

Ok, now that you have purchased that song, I am sure that you have marked it as your 2nd favorite song ever.  With, of course, which ever Young Harmony song that you prefer being your 1st favorite song ever!!

May this be the best CHRISTMAS you and your family have ever shared.

Thank you for allowing Young Harmony to be part of your life.  Your prayers as we travel are greatly appreciated!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!  What a wonderful day that GOD has given each of us.  HE is more amazing than we even know. 

As you spend time today with your families, please remember GOD’s blessings are why you are even able to do this.  There are so many people without families, food and friends.  GOD has blessed each of us beyond all measure.  THANK YOU, GOD!

Please remember to pray for those that don’t have families.  Also, if you have left over food, why not wrap some in paper plates, and take them to some of the less fortunate people in your area.  GOD has always taught us to give to others, and today should be no different.

Love you guys and appreciate the support that you have given over the years!

Your friends,

What a wonderful weekend GOD blessed Young Harmony with.  We were able to talk with people one on one that GOD has allow us to be part of a major impact on their lives!  It is always humbling to have people share what GOD used you for.  To think that HE would allow me to be part of HIS great work is awesome!  THANK YOU JESUS!  Can I share with you one situation that happened this past weekend?  A lady came to the product table completely broken, drenched with tears, sharing how GOD used the service to set her free from some mind wrenching holds that satan was destroying her with.  PRAISE GOD!  HE TRULY IS LOVE BEYOND ALL MEASURE!  THANK YOU JESUS!!
