Debbie Charles, Lead Singer -
I began singing as a child and always knew that music was my first and foremost calling. Not
through any of my doing, but the gift that God has given. Thanks to all of those Christ loving people
who touched my life as a child and gave me the encouragement and opportunity to do what I love
best, sing Gods praises. The Lord has led me down many paths throughout my life, but my one
calling was to minister to others in song. If our music can touch just one soul who may come to
know Jesus Christ as their Savior, then our work is not in vain. I love the Lord God with all my
heart and my wish for you is to have that love and peace in your life. Only He is worthy of our
praise. May the Lord Jesus Christ bless and keep you for eternity....  Psalm 100

Singers
Karen L Palmer, Alto/Tenor -
About me is as multifaceted as a sparkling crystal.  I have many emotions I love to express such
as joy, excitement , happiness, but most of all,  the love I have for Jesus Christ, my personal Lord
and Savior.….As an newborn I was taken from the hospital nursery to the church nursery, so I have
known about Jesus since birth, receiving him as my Savior at the age of 9. I come from a Christian  
family with an extensive musical background and was singing at a very early age.  After some
seriously bad choices and rebellion, God has still chosen to show favor to me and has called me
to the music ministry, fulfilling a life time dream of singing with a group. I am the co-author of a lot
of our music, with God being the author. I was a national semi-finalist in the Exalting Him 2006
National Talent Search, but I have never been happy as a soloist. During a critical health crisis, the
Lord brought Debbie and Brent to me at my sick bed and we have been singing ever since. I
absolutely love singing harmony and now have that opportunity. I look forward to seeing you as we
are out and about.  God bless !
Brent Ingram, Tenor/Baritone/Guitar -
As a man of few words, this is not an easy thing for me to do.  As a child I was raised in the church
and sang with my 2 sisters and brother.  Best I recall, I was saved as a teenager, but once I was
out of high school, I hit the highway.  I began singing secular/country music for a number of years.  
I played guitar, mandolin, and banjo.
In 2005 I was diagnosed with lung cancer and had a serious talk with God.  I vowed to him that if
he would see fit to bring me through the lung cancer that I would never sing secular music again.
He was faithful to that and I have kept my word.  I have sung with some other groups, but last year I
met Karen through these endeavors. I heard of Karen’s illness and gave her a shout.  She asked
me to come on board with her and Debbie and I have been a part of this group ever since.  I am
able to play guitar again and am also helping with our background arrangements.  Please keep
me in your prayers and I hope to see you soon.
Lucy Link-Honorary Member
Lucy has the most beautiful soprano voice and a smile that will melt your heart, but was diagnosed
with Alzheimer’s disease in 2003. She is Karen’s mom and did sing and travel with the group until
March 2007.  Last December, she did a solo at one of the events and got a standing ovation before
the song was even over. Whenever the group is singing in the Dayton area every one always asks
“Is Momma coming?”.  She certainly has been a highlight of this group and still sings along at
some of our practices. Please be in much prayer that God will restore her to perfect health and she
will be able to sing with us again soon.
