Each month on the third Friday Karin and Bill DiLuigi host a writer's night at the Frothy Monkey on 12th Ave South in Nashville. This has been an awesome time to hear from some of Nashville's most talented writers and artists...it has also been an opportunity to raise awareness of the plight of many who sadly go to bed hungry every night.
When Karin traveled to Kenya with her son Michael in the Spring of 2006, she met with local churches who are trying to build a home and school for more than 200 orphans....after her visit she promised to help in any way she could.
Together they decided to offer hand made African crafts for a modest donation to raise the necessary funds to build the home and feed the children. Karin and Bill have decided to offer these fine crafts and display photos of these precious children every month - won't you come out and support this effort....for what we do unto the least, we do unto the Lord!

Saying Goodbye - a tribute to Gospel recording artist Donald Hatcher
DC Hatcher and Holyfamily
Karin spent last week in New York attending the memorial services of gifted Gospel artist and friend Donald Hatcher who was taken suddenly Friday July 27 the result of a massive heart attack. Donald, sometimes referred to as the “Quincy Jones of Gospel”, was a celebrated songwriter, pianist, vocalist and arranger/producer.
Karin and Donald met more than 10 years ago when he asked her to perform with him in a Christmas service at Mt. Sinai Baptist Church in Roosevelt, New York. They went on to become close friends, recording an eclectic Gospel Album together entitled Crimson Red and performing together across the New York Metro area.
Donald (center) is pictured above with his gosepl music group Holyfamily. Donald, the founder of the group, was joined by musicians Ron Jennings on bass, Lee Brown and Andy White on guitar, Bobby Mosley on drums and vocalists Bernadine Peterson, Angela Nash, Patricia Jennings, Tawana Brown, Jo Ann Wilson, Carolyn Harding, Rebecca Simmons and Yolande Brown. This is the second loss of a band member as Angela Nash was tragically killed not long in an automobile accident just outside of New York City.
However the music lives on . . . Donald was in the studio recently working on his latest project which is being completed posthumously and the CDs "Surrender" and "Crimson Red" are both available for purchase through CDBaby.
While in New York, Karin penned a new song in honor of her dear friend which is presently in production at Lamp Post Studio - the studio that she and Donald used so often. She will add her vocals to that of Holyfamily and present the finished recording to Donald's family as a living memorial.
Donald is surived by his wife of 19 years Jeannnie, his son Andrew 17, and his daughter Rachel 9, as well as many extended family, friends and the music community on Long Island and around the world - truly our loss is heaven's gain.
August 18 at the Frothy Monkey - Nashville, TN
Karin is putting together another hot night of live music at the Frothy Monkey in Nashville's trendy 12 South neighborhood. Come on over and hear some of the best singer/songwriters Nashville can boast.
Besides the cool atmosephere and hot music we will have handmade Kenyan crafts available for a modest donation. All proceeds will help feed, house and educate over 200 orphans through Building the Kingdom Ministries.

I Am Ready - Latest Review
"If I were to assign this album to a genre it would be progressive country gospel. It has a fresh sound and Karin does an excellent job delivering the songs with conviction. The first cut, “I Know What God Looks Like”, is a powerful song that will make you put your thinking cap on. I also especially liked “You”, and the title cut “I Am Ready”. With 13 cuts on this project, Karin displays a wide vocal range and the ability to create varied moods in her songs. Most of the songs are soft and tender while others are delivered matter of fact and with an edge to them. If you are the slightest bit a country gospel fan, this is an album you don’t want to miss out on."

Tennessee may be hot, but not as hot as Africa which is where Karin is headed for four weeks this Spring as she travels to Kenya with her 13 year old son Michael. She has been invited to share her music to help raise hope and support for some of Africa's destitute orphans. While in Kenya, Karin will be hosted by a Kenyan family where she will have the awesome opportunity to experience African hospitality.
But before she goes, catch her in March around Nashville as she performs her emotional single "One Life" in tribute to Africa's homeless children - or better yet purchase her new inspirational country CD I Am Ready which includes this song plus 11 more great tunes. All proceeds from this CD are being donated to her work among the orphans in Africa. Just go to the music page to hear a sample and purchase your copy online.
If you are interested in supporting this work please contact Karin today. All donations are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law.

From London - July 25, 2005
My sympathies go out to the families of those who have lost their lives and suffered injuries during this tumultuous time.
Being here in London I can testify that London is a truly remarkable city and Londoners resislient people. The bombings of the London underground and buses on July 7th and the attempted bombings last Thursday have not shaken this city. They are going about their lives and NOT allowing terrorism to dictate how they live.
The atmosphere in the city is somewhat tense and guarded and police have stepped up the number of uniformed officers especially around public transportation, but overall everyone is getting on with their lives.
I am confident that there could be no better time for me to be here than immediately following the release of I Am Ready. It is already being played on the radio in the Netherlands, London and Birmingham. Concerts have gone exceedingly well and I have sold out of every CD that I brought with me.
Please continue to pray. Surely God is at work here in the United Kingdom.
