A New Direction

Thank you for all the warm wishes, cards, and wedding gifts that Barry and I have received. We had a beautiful wedding (I promise pics soon). There were over 400 people in attendance. My dad said he counted 92 people that said they were coming but didn’t show up and to that he added “I’m glad they didn’t”. Barry S and Dedra did an awesome job singing. Barry sang “She Was Watching” as my parents gave me away...a real tear jerker. Then he and Dedra sang duet on “1000 Miles” and “When God Made You, He Must Have Been Thinking About Me” – I think they became official professional wedding singers as I heard some folks were trying to book them for their or their family member’s weddings.....who knows there could be a “Barry & Dedra: The Wedding Singers Greatest Hits” CD to hit the shelf one day. Jill was a beautiful bridesmaid – as was Anna. Andrew was very handsome as Jr. Groomsman – and Abby welll... she was Abby – (she didn’t want “Bubba” to take her to Nanny after she had walked down the aisle) it was great though...Jesse did a great job praying over us and talking about the unity candle. Even Terry Helms cleaned up right nice as one of our groomsmen...Thanks to all you guys for making our day special ... Wish all of the TST fans could have been there too...


God has a perfect timing and perfect plan for His children. For sometime now God has been dealing with me and leading in a different ministry. As most of you know, my husband, pastors Oak Hill Church of God of Prophecy, in Temple. We officially were appointed on Sunday, July 22. As I said, the Lord has been dealing with me for sometime about my role as a pastor’s wife. I feel it is time for me to come off the road and work side by side with my husband to build the kingdom of God.
I am so thankful for the 3 yrs I have spent traveling with The Shadrix Trio – I would never trade the many miles, smiles, laughs and tears we have shared. But most of all I would never trade all the lives that I have seen come to know the Lord through our ministry. I will still be apart of TST as I will work some in the office – I just wont be traveling. I will miss seeing all of you – but know that you are truly in my heart and I have been blessed to get to know so many of TST’s fans!!! Keep Barry G, myself and our church in your prayers – we have a lot of work to do – I am honored that God has chosen us to serve Him this way. This will be a new undertaking – but I know that God will not lead us into anything that HE will not equip us to go.

To Barry S & Dedra: Thanks for the opportunity to travel and minister with TST. I truly can say I have been blessed to share the road with you. I pray God will pour out a GREATER anointing on TST and that many souls will come to know Him. Stay strong and know that He has led you this far and will not let you down now. I love you both dearly and I am so thankful for our friendship/kinship....”WE ARE FAMILY”....

Again – thanks to everyone for all your love and prayers...if you’d like to contact me – you can continue to use

For His Purpose,

Linda George
