GRAMMY & six time DOVE AWARD WINNER Michael English is one of the most gifted singers of modern times. His number one hit "In Christ Alone" inspired millions and former Bufallo Bills Quarterback Frank Reich listened to it on the one way to the stadium in 1994 and that day threw four touchdowns to produce the biggest comeback in NFL history. Asked how he did it?  Bills QB Frank replied: "It was God! I was listening to Michael English's song on the radio this morning en route to the game and on the sidelines I kept repeating it in my head. That song gave me the drive to realize "I can do ALL things with Christ's help."

   Michael sang for years with the legendary GAITHER VOCAL BAND and touched millions with his renditions of “I Bowed on My Knees” “The King is Coming” and countless southern gospel classics and hymns.  His solo albums went to the very top with hits: “In Christ Alone” “Holding Out Hope” “Midnight Cry” “Heaven to Earth” and others!  Michael’s first book hit bookstores nation-wide “The Prodigal Returns” and he notes: “We serve a God of grace and second chances.”  Multiplied millions have been inspired by his music but more than ever he touches heart with a message of God’s restoration and forgiveness.  Considered by many to be one of the greatest voices of all time in Christian music!  We are thrilled to have Michael sing for us at Celebrate Jesus! TEXAS Crusade.  BRING A FRIEND – actually invite your entire neighborhood for this unforgettable evening of Hope, HUMOR, Healing and Heaven on Earth! Visit www.michaelenglishmusic.com

   Jubil-Heirs began in 1988 with its founders, Jerry and Laura McElroy. From the outset, the goal of their ministry has been to touch the hearts and lives of listeners by sharing the love, power and forgiveness of Jesus Christ. Although entertaining at times, the true purpose of our ministry is to plant seeds of hope in the hearts of listeners - to see God's power manifested in their lives - to strengthen and encourage in the midst of the despairing world. 

    Jubil-Heirs include: Jerry McElroy (bass singer/manager) and Laura McElroy (vocal/piano). Their ministry in music spans many years. Both have numerous awards including favorite bass singer, favorite male and female vocalist and favorite musician. In 1978, Laura wrote “No Greater Love,” which was voted song of the year. Both Jerry and Laura have been inducted into the "International Country Gospel Music Hall of Fame". They desire to lift up the name of Jesus and to see lost souls saved.

Bill and Cindy reside in Aledo, Texas.  Frank Ligon (vocals/drums) Frank (Bill's younger brother) is our newest member, having recently joined the group to sing in Cindy's place while she recovered from knee surgery. Now he is hooked. He sings lead/baritone and plays drums to enhance the various musical instruments within the group.

Evangelist Freddie Gage (considered second to only Billy Graham in soul winning in Southern Baptist Convention) noted: “In churches today, they’re only two types of preachers and churches – a soul winning church and a church that has no heart for souls.”  Frank Shelton has dedicated his entire life to pointing people to Jesus.  Recently over 3,600 people have accepted Christ following his message.  Frank will preach in Bahamas on June 4-8 with Josh McDowell, Bishop Myles Munroe, Jamey Ragle, SONICFLOOd, Nicole C Mullen, David Phelps, Crabb Family, former Heavyweight Wrestling Champ “STING” & others!

Bush White House as a volunteer in the Correspondence Office, aide to the Governor of Maryland and Constituent Liaison/Special Assistant to now House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer, also a fundraiser for the Republican National Committee.  He knew people were more important than partisan politics.  His father, Frank Sr. was a fourth generation Washington D.C. police officer before retiring as Acting Assistant Chief of the United States Capitol Police.  Frank once considered a career with the U.S. Secret Service but God gave him a message and he couldn't keep it a secret!  Frank has a heart for people, public service and sharing God's love.
