CONGRATS! Acappella Ministries will have its next large-group album recording this summer and some locals, including some of our own here at JA, will be a part of this group of over 1,000 singers!

Congrats to: Jennifer McClennon, Faith Henshaw, Rachel Sim, Carter Ashby, June Ashby, and Steve Leddy from JA.
