Hi everyone!! I’m soooooo excited about doing my very first “After Hours” blog and lucky me…I get to write about El Grupo Legacy’s experience Friday, November 28th at Winterfest 2008!

So, let me just begin by saying that we practiced HARD for this event but it was worth all the effort we put forth! I can admit that I was pretty nervous walking into the ballroom during the pre-service…I have been singing in front of congregations since I was 4 yrs. old but the butterflies never go away!! I don’t mind too much, though, ‘cause it keeps me pumped!!

Anyway, when we were sitting down, we heard people whispering, “Hey, that’s Legacy!” and I turned and didn’t really recognize anyone so I was surprised that they knew who we were (then again…I’m REALLY bad with faces and names!!), but I was even more surprised and shocked at all the noise the crowd made when they announced that El Grupo Legacy would be playing during the service!! I thought that I was dreaming…it’s just so humbling when people enjoy and are blessed by what we do for the Lord because our purpose IS to bless everyone with the gifts that God has placed in our hands. It’s so rewarding to see that all of your hard work and all the passion that you feel for the Lord and what you do for Him is having an effect and is blessing people’s lives. I mean, we hadn’t even gone onstage and my heart was already so full and joyful!! J

I sang my heart out when we were onstage and I know that the other singers did too and that the musicians put their heart into the music they were playing, so I really hope that it came through to you! We sang some of our current songs and we sang 2 songs that will be on our next CD and that was very exciting…I know that we got a GREAT response!

So from the bottom of my heart….THANK YOU to everyone who cheered us on and praised God with us! We had a BLAST!!!!! And it was all thanks to you because we can sing with all of our might but if you guys don’t open your hearts to God and to our music, we have nothing…but you guys were an AMAZING audience and I think that together we made our praise go up to the very throne of God. I’m absolutely sure that he was smiling as he watched us rejoice in Him.
