ALL4HIM Gospel Trio
10 am - 11 am

Life long residents of the Lithopolis area make up the newly formed Gospel group ALL4HIM. Tim and Sally Acton and good friend, Sheri Delong, have been singing Gospel music together for over four years now. Each member has been involved all their lives in music at their home churches. As the name implies, ALL4HIM is devoted to Christian ministry, with each member being involved in music all of their lives at their home churches and with other musicians and performers. The group has shared their ministry in churches, at revivals, county fairs and festivals. Previous experiences together include travels and singing in Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, West Virginia and Nashville. While in Nashville the group recorded a project with the legendary Eddie Crook, Happy Goodman’s former pianist. Mr. Crook managed such Gospel groups as The Bishops, Wiburns, Isaacs and the Perrys. We were so honored to have worked under the direction of Eddie Crook and to have him provide accompaniment for our sound tracks. Enjoy a mix of traditional and contemporary Gospel music and hymns through tight harmony of the trio and soloists.
