Happy singers visit the UK and dreams


On the 22nd and 23rd of August 2009 the Happy singers make their first ever visit to sing in the UK and outside the Netherlands' base for that matter. I feel very excited about this. I have been priviledged to be choir director for this bunch of teenagers for close to 9 years now and in that time, we've sang all over the Netherlands, in churches, concerts, and festivals ,won the odd award there and even been on National TV a few times. I give God the glory. Have always dreamt of taken them with me outside the country till the door opened to make this a reality . This is a group under the Salvation Army that started with the desire to make something good out of a bunch of growing kids from various sometime dysfuntional backgrounds and grew over the years.

I was invited to sing at this concert and there were questions about how many were coming, of course I said off hand, just me in my usual solo thinking, God had another plan. On a particular day while on a plane flying back from an engagement in the US, an idea suddenly came in my head to aske the organiser if I could bring a choir, the rest as they say is history. Never give up on a dream.
