Benton's Crossroads Baptist Church - November 10, 2019 

Before we left Charlotte this year, we shared some of our Steel City Sound music with Benton's Crossroads Baptist Church in Monroe, NC.  In respect to Veteran's Day, we shared a couple of patriotic songs and recognized our veterans in attendance.  We then shared a mini sampling of our music with the congregation.  What a great church.  Everyone was a blessing.  They even had us join them for lunch and the food was excellent!  We look forward to returning next year.
