¡Hey everybody! Rick Lee James here coming to you from inside the James Fortress of Solitude here in Springfield, Ohio. It's the week of Thanksgiving and this week, finally, my album is being mastered. That means next week at the latest the album will be sent off to be pressed and be released. And that means hopefully within 2 to 3 weeks I'll be able to release the digital album and by Christmas be able to get the album itself, Hymns, Prayers, and Invitations, the physical copies into donors' hands, mailed off to them before Christmas this year, God willing. Please, Lord. We're only about 3 weeks away from when we actually started recording last year, and I'm just very happy and thankful to be able to bring this album to you. The album doesn't release until March 17th. We only have $300 to go to reach our goal on GoFundMe. Gofundme.com. That still doesn't give us all the money that we need, but it does help us set up our initial goal. The rest of it is, uh, I'm just gonna take the plunge and pull it out of the bank account and trust God to provide. And, uh, so anyway, if you haven't given yet, this is my last week that I'm going to be allowing donations. I'd love to reach our goal of $4,500 on gofundme.com. I'm so grateful to all of you that have already given and have been a part of this project. I'd love to get it to you early before our St. Patrick's Day release. We've got so much to do in the meantime to get ready for the national release, but for those of you that donate in advance, you'll see at gofundme.com/hymns, there are different levels that you can come in on and receive rewards for that. And anybody who donates $10 or more between now and Thanksgiving, I'm going to send an advance song from the album immediately. As soon as I get your donation, I'll email it off to you. So that's it for now. If you can help out at all, that would be great. If we could get, you you know, just 30 people to give $10, you know, that will be there. So you guys take care, God bless you, and thank you so much for supporting my album Hymns, Prayers, and Invitations. And if you haven't yet and were waiting till the last minute to give, it's the last minute at gofundme.com/hymns. Thank you so much, God bless you, and have a happy Thanksgiving.
