The Kraemer Family Singers had the privilege of being a part of a wonderful evening testifying to the mighty redemptive power of God’s love. We were asked to prepare two musical selections for Hope Pregnancy Center’s Fundraiser Banquet, hosted at the Holiday Inn of Willmar, MN last Thursday (September 21st). The featured speaker was Ryan Dobson (Dr. James Dobson’s son) who spoke on the dangers of tolerating things that are “just plain stupid,” and the need for truth to shine forth. He also expressed thanks to all the moms who go through the pains of a pregnancy and then give their child up to a waiting family. HE was the son of one such mom, who delivered her son into the hands of Jim and Shirley Dobson!
A highlight for us was the client testimony from a gal that we personally know from the farms. It was touching how through her courageous testimony God brought honor and glory to Himself from one of the lowest points of her young life. Isn’t that just like Him?!
Our songs wrapped up the program, with Abigail and younger siblings singing a treble arrangement of Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the Womb.” Christopher began and ended the song with a touching solo. We finished with the whole family boldly singing Psalm 16, “For You Are My God,” with Joshua accompanying on the piano. (He, John, & Abigail also supplied the dinner guests with an hour and a half of background piano music earlier in the evening.)
It was a new experience for us, and the smaller fry that had to wait all night for their turn to sing were very well behaved!
To God be the glory—Great things He hath done!
