Product Description
Gloria Willingham is an iconic figure in the Nazarene denomination; her mother was Grace Ramquist and her grandfather was J. B. Chapman. Oh, and her husband, Elbert, is the son of T. W. Willingham. Gloria was a schoolteacher before retirement; she raised two daughters; and she is a lifelong advocate for world missions. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and her laugh is inspiring...especially considering her long battle with rheumatoid arthritis. What an honor it was to collaborate with Gloria on several songs while serving together at Kansas City First Church of the Nazarene back in the day: she, the missionary president, and I, a music staff member.
You are looking at one of her theme songs, a snappy little chorus with a Latin beat. It could be useful for services emphasizing missions or, more generally, consecration. For the purchase price, feel free to duplicate as many copies as you need for your musicians, even including the music in a worship bulletin for the congregation if desired.
It
has been my lifelong passion to provide fresh, yet accessible music
for
the churches and schools with whom I have been associated. Because of
the slowdown caused by Covid-19, I
finally have the time to start posting 45 years' worth of custom
arrangements on Sheet Music Plus. If you are curious about what else is
available, please navigate to my publisher page here on SMP
<

or slip over to Facebook
<https://www.facebook.com/leathermanmusicservices>;
where you can
see and hear more published works.
Thanks for your interest! If you
perform any of my material and are able to produce a high-quality mp3 recording or a video, please
send it to me at leathmus@aol.com. If it's something that I can use as a demo on
SMP or Facebook, I'll refund your purchase price and give credit where credit is due!
God bless!
