Robert's Story
After graduating from Everett HS in 1969 I spent two years at North Central College in Illinois, then two more in Ohio at Heidelberg College where I received my Bachelors in Music Education. I taught three year's of high school vocal music at Monroe (MI) High School, then moved to Orlando, where we developed a touring gospel choir called Festival of Praise, working with legendary Christian music producer, Thurlow Spurr. I toured as director/administrator/pastor of this team of 40-50 people full time for the next 6+ years, doing over 2000 concerts across USA and into Canada, releasing 6 albums, and appearing on numerous national TV shows.

Festival of Praise and directed city-wide choirs in Central FL, South FL, Tampa Bay, and NY/NJ.
In 1987 I took a position on the pastoral staff at Grace Church - Saint Louis in Md Hts, MO, where I have served for the past 34 years. In 1996 I started a city-wide group, the Saint Louis Concert Choir, and we are celebrating our 25th season this year. I continue to serve on the church staff, primarily in pastoral care, and also direct the Church Choir and lead a weekly Worship/Prayer meeting every Tuesday noon. Paula and I have one son, Benjamin, 28, and a Boston Terrier puppy named Clover. You can find my worship song posts on my Facebook page and watch for our pay-per-view Christmas special Christmas week called "CHRISTMAS IS" to be filmed in Orlando December 4 and produced by Thurlow and Kathey Spurr.
