The Texas Gospel Music Barn Ministries invites everyone to come enjoy an evening of great Gospel music with a concert featuring David's Song at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at the First United Methodist Church of Palacios, located at 209 Lucas. Admission is free.

What do you get when you mix an award-winning piano playing tenor from Indianapolis, Ind., a smooth-voiced baritone from Alma, Mich., and a smiling lead singer from Homer, La.?
