Links Many family members and friends who share my beliefs have also created web sites. I hope you will enjoy visiting them, and that by doing so, you will gain a greater insight into my own life, as well. .
. My
mother, Oneita Karickhoff Powers, grew up the eighth of nine children and I am blessed to be a part of the Karickhoff
family. One of my cousins, Mr. Shane Smith, incorporated family history as well as pictures and other interesting information
into his special tribute. I hope you will enjoy www.KarickhoffFamily.com, and when you're finished, come back to Sweet Song Ministries to see how the love and faith of my grandparents has been
carried forward to my own life and the ministry through which God has so richly blessed me.
. My mother married
Glenn Powers and based on love and Christian principles, began a life of their own. My sister, Gloria
Jean Powers Husk created a website filled with photos, history and articles of faith that can be accessed at www.Gloryway.com. Gloria has also published a book entitled "Reflections of My Life From the Florida Panhandle". Her
book is a compilation of poems, inspired by God, which give the reader a glimpse of her life and faith. Gloria's
website, like our cousin, Shane's, is filled with family heritage and the sweet spirit of love that has passed through the
generations to fill our family today. . .
. The Mustang Club of West Virginia, Inc. (MCWV) was
formed in 1968 as part of the National Council of Mustangs, an organized group formed by Ford Motor Company through local
Ford Dealers. The MCWV is open to all people who currently own, or would like to own, any Ford, Lincoln or Mercury
product. The club is more like family than just another "Car Club" and most club members believe
it is the best in the Kanawha Valley. The MCWV's annual all-Ford show and Chili Cookoff has become well known
as not just another "car show," but a real "social event." People come each year to sample the Chili,
look at the cars, to renew old friendships and make new ones. One thing that makes the MCWV's annual event
"extra" special is that they hold an early morning worship service before the festivities begin. Mr. Alan Yoke,
Secretary/Treasurer of the MCWV invited me to sing at the car show's worship service in 2007 and it was
a real honor to share in the excitement of the day. Alan, his wife, Shirley, and their entire family have become
special friends, and God never ceases to amaze me at the way He turns opportunities and ordinary events into remarkable
blessings. Click on the Club's logo to access their site, and if you have an opportunity to attend this year's
car show, do it. You'll have a great time !!! .
. One of life's
greatest blessings is that of a dear friend and neighbor. Chris Dodson has been that to me. Chris single-handedly
edits and publishes Hack'd Magazine, "The Magazine For and About Sidecarists". Chris and her family
moved into our neighborhood shortly after my husband and I built our home and although I don't get to spend as much
time with her as I would like, knowing her has truly been a joy. I remember one time Chris gave me some sunflower seeds
for my flowerbed, and even now as I recall that moment, I realize that no other flower could have been more
appropriate as a gift from her. Chris is a ray of sunshine, and her positive can-do attitude, combined with her recognition
of a Higher Power over her life, makes her a truly remarkable person. Sidecars are as much her passion as
music is mine, and I hope you will enjoy her site. www.Hackd.com
