<br />
Thanks for all the response to our email newsletters. We still haven't had measurable rain here at our place, but some folks have had enough not 15 miles north of us for the highway tractors to have to mow. Good for them!!<br />
<br />
We had a great time in Perryton, TX this past weekend - first at "The Rib Joint" owned and operated by Steve & Fonda Clumsky and then on Saturday, "A Day for You" conference hosted by the ladies ministry of Community Worship Center. Then, on Sunday morning, we conducted Cowboy Church for Hale Ranch at their Cattle Sale (loved every minute) and then that night helped kick off Canadian River Cowboy Church in Borger, TX. We just meet and re-connect with such nice people who love Christ and want to serve Him in their individual lives….<br />
<br />
OH and I have some really handsome Pumpkins and a huge ghord from Trevor Hale's garden…thanks Trevor for the ride on the 4 Wheeler!!!<br />
<br />
Coming up!!!! Mark and I will be in Gilbert, SC this weekend at Cedar Creek Cowboy Church, Sunday morning and evening.<br />
<br />
On Sunday, October 16th, we will be at the Friendship Nazarene Church, Ashland, OK in the morning and Harper's Valley Baptist Church in the evening. Both of these dates are within 20 miles of our home, so it will be good to be able to not travel far and still do what we do.We are excited about being at all these churches!!<br />
<br />
Mark's grandbabies are doing well…they have to jump thru some hoops before they get released from the NICU, but they are progressing nicely.<br />
<br />
My daddy is continuing to do well…and all our kids are healthy.<br />
<br />
LADIES!!! Go online NOW to register for Pamper Me! You will not want to miss this event…we have so much fun in store for you +++++ lots of goodlife stories and singing, shopping, eating, etc., etc. www.susiemcentire.com or call 580 889 5219.<br />
<br />
Thanks for all your comments about Cowboy Church on RFD tv especially during the 9/11 episodes…it was our pleasure to film that for such a worthy cause.<br />
<br />
Remember that more things are Caught than Taught….are we throwing out anything that is worth CATCHING???<br />
<br />
God bless you, and thanks for helping to support the work Mark and I are doing. We enjoy every minute.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />
<br />

You know, we don't go many places where you hear absolutely nothing!!! But this morning we did……<br />
Mark and I are in the state of Washington right now and just got done with a nice hike up Sauk Mountain (just on the other side of Sedro Woolley). After we exited the main highway, we drove another 7 miles to get to the "get out and hoof it" point, then we hiked another 45 minutes. You can see some of our pictures on Facebook and website www.susiemcentire.com It was COOL (still snow up there) and misty and just a really GREAT place to be this morning. We saw some chipmunks, birds, great vegetation, and of all things a ptarmigan hen and her family (that's a mountain chicken for us lowlanders) They turn white in the winter, but today she was the exact same color as the rocks. <br />
God sure takes good care of His creation!! <br />
We had a great time at the Pendleton Round-up in Pendleton, OR. I surprised Mark with a trip to the PBR on Monday night (which was our 21 month anniversary), watched slack, visited with friends on Tuesday and had a concert hosted by the Blue Mountain Christian Cowboys out of Fairfield. The evening was beautiful and the crowd was warm…thanks to all who gave generously of their time and finances to help support the concert.<br />
We will be in Toppenish, WA this coming Sunday evening at 6pm at the high school. Thanks to all who have worked hard getting this concert together. <br />
Registrations for Pamper Me are coming in and we are working hard to get ready for all you ladies!! It's going to be a Hawaiian adventure!!! <br />
Call 580 889 5219 or go to www.susiemcentire.com to register. We are going to have a great time and don't want to do it without you! <br />
We also have t-shirts available on the website!!! <br />
Our prayers and concern go out to all who have had the terrible fires and drought. It's been bad in our county, but at least we had spring rains. We've heard of many folks who haven't had rain in over a year. <br />
For those of you who continue to ask about my daddy….good news! He is doing much better…he's quite a jokester and still tells a great story. He walks with a walker and has a great appetite. I so admire my mama for her great attitude and thank God for all the good help she and daddy have through Home Health. Thanks for your prayers!! <br />
Mark's daughter Tara and her husband Daniel are rejoicing over "preemie but healthy" identical twin boys born on the 12th in Boston. The babies may be in the hospital for several weeks, but they are in really good care. We are so thankful!! <br />
Mark and I had a great summer and are looking forward to the fall….We hope to see you in one of these places: <br />
September 26 - Frederick, OK<br />
October 1 - Perryton, TX<br />

<br />
I just wanted to touch base with all of you and let you know that my recovery is progressing.<br />
Sitting on the couch today here in Burlington, WA, it's 74 degrees, sunny, and I have Andy Griffith playing on the tv in front of me. <br />
Now THAT's therapy!! <br />
Mark is taking such good care of me since I had the appendectomy in Rapid City on Monday. I want to thank all the hospital staff, doctors,and friends who helped us so much in our time of need. THANK YOU!!<br />
God was gracious with us as to the timing of the sickness…we had finished concerts in Ord, NE, Crawford, NE and Isabel, SD and were preparing to have a great time<br />
with our friends in Custer, SD for the trail ride and concert/teachings when I started having horrible stomach pains at midnight on Sunday night. I got awesome care at the hospital in Custer and in Rapid City…thanks for your prayers. <br />
Well…it's time for Antelope again! We are so looking forward to performing in the Antelope Community Church YARD with the Mud Springs Gospel Band and seeing all of you again. We will begin at 4pm. <br />
Our summer tour officially ends in Wichita Falls, TX at the Texas Ranch Rodeo, August 19-20 (Church service 9am on the 20th).<br />
Sorry to be so short with this letter….better shut the old time tv off and get some rest.<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful day!!<br />

Here's hoping that your day/week/month/year is going good so far! <br />
Mark and I are currently in Washington state where we've been able to visit with Mark's daughter Tara and husband Daniel, son Kyle, mom Anna, and brother Scott. I hear Mark groaning just a bit now because he's editing a video on YouTube…ha! We over 50 don't like to read instructions! BUT we have a 19 month Wedding Anniversary to celebrate today…glad he didn't get hung up on instructions when that proposal came about!!<br />
I was able to speak with my family today…Mama was in good spirits - daddy was asleep - he had another mini stroke a week ago, but continues to be a trooper. Please say a prayer for them to weather thru this facet of their lives. EP is weathering out the drought in OK…we are praying for rain for the cattle/horses; Samuel is on hand to help EP and will compete at Cheyenne Frontier Days, Cheyenne, WY soon; Lucchese is still in LA and doing well. She and I made a road trip from LA to Billings, MT and had lots of windshield time to visit, laugh, and commiserate…nothing like 20 hours in a car to cause bonding…I am so thankful that all our family are well.<br />
Mark and I fly back to Denver on July 21 to do concerts in Colorado Springs, Cheyenne, and Greeley. See itinerary on our NEW WEBSITE: www.susiemcentire.com Then we fly to NJ, and back to Denver for dates in NE, OR, SD and wind up the summer in TX. We are looking forward to all these dates and time to meet new friends and catch up with old friends.<br />
Those of you who usually come to Antelope, OR the first weekend….please remember we scheduled it for August 14 @ 4pm this year only!!<br />
Another highlight of our year is Pamper Me! November 4 & 5 in Atoka, OK….go to website and register for lots of fun!!! We have the speakers, singers, and cosmetologists all set up and rearing to go!! www.susiemcentire.com <br />
We have experienced such hot/dry weather in Oklahoma-many states are dry, but at least we do have pond water for our animals. Please say a prayer for those who have had drought, fires and devastation. Also, continue to pray for those who have had just the opposite…lots of floods/storms/tornadoes. <br />
We all as humans need encouragement….sometimes this can come in a way as simple as a smile. We don't know what folks are going thru…go ahead…give that smile away.<br />
God bless you!<br />

<br />

<br />
Then, we go into August….Hope to see y'all at one of these dates!! <br />
<br />
Go to www.susiemcentire.com to see get details and see our complete list of dates.<br />
<br />
So many of you have been so kind to ask about our families. My father, Clark McEntire, is home now and really doesn't show the typical<br />
<br />
signs of stroke. His speech & dexterity are good, there is no paralysis, and he knows most everyone who comes in the door.<br />
<br />
Mark's mom is still at Mt. Glen Retirement Center in WA and is responding well to treatment for Parkinson's Disease. <br />
<br />
My two sons, EP and Samuel are "herdin' cattle' on the family ranch in Oklahoma; Mark's daughters are married- Talia has two small little girls and Tara and Daniel are expecting twin boys in the fall.<br />
<br />
Mark's son Kyle is on leave at this moment in Seattle from his time serving in the Marines in Japan, and my daughter Lucchese is still hard at work in Pasadena, CA being an esthetician.<br />
It is well know that many times the caregiver is overlooked and unappreciated…Please lift up my mama, Jac McEntire that she stay healthy while tending to daddy.<br />
<br />
Ladies!!! Be sure to save the first weekend of November in order to attend Pamper Me in my hometown of Atoka, OK. www.susiemcentire.com to register! We will have lots of music, laughter, teaching, breakout sessions, food, shopping, a few tears, hair/nails/ and plenty of fluffing!!!<br />
<br />
I am also using the fantastic NuSkin Galvanic Spa. It is a way to help us 'fend off' the effects of aging on our skin. We will have a booth at Pamper Me, but if you are interested in having information now, please respond to this email and let me know. <br />
<br />
When we were in Washington, D.C. a few weeks ago, we saw many different HUGE buildings (sometimes compounds) representing the different interests of the American people….Dept of Energy, Dept of Welfare, and one in particular that caught my eye the "Dept of Agriculture". I remember when I was in high school, there was an 4-H Extension Agent named Mr. Grigsby. He gave advice on how to do the projects we were involved in 4-H Club. He could also give advice to ranchers and farmers about what weed spray to use or what grass seed would be beneficial for their pasture soil. He extended his hand to help those in his area to grow and flourish. In a way, he was an 'extension' of that huge building in Washington that we in Kiowa could never get to. <br />
<br />
Remember that God didn't just give us our relationship with Christ to keep it to ourselves-to stay in a building all tucked in and comfortable. This doesn't mean we have to get a non-profit, go to seminary and become an evangelist/preacher. It probably means right here in our own community caring enough to smile, help, guide, take in, buy a cup of coffee or a bag of groceries, to listen, and see beyond the outside appearance…using what we have to be interested in folks who may be on their last thread of hope hanging on desperately to see if God still knows they exist. Sure HE does…but He wants to use us…be an extension…and let them know WE care. And thanks, Mr. Grigsby…<br />
<br />
God bless you and have a great summer!!<br />
<br />

Spring has sprung in SE Oklahoma, we've had lots of rain and the grass is growing….AND SO we are looking down more than usual…snakes, stingin' scorpions, centipedes, and 'the like' are in 'full swing ahead' and my Seattle husband Mark hasn't figured out yet why they all want to be in our house!<br />
<br />
I am writing to you from seat 31E on American flight 670 from Washington Dulles in route to Dallas/Ft Worth today, Monday, May 16th. Our sore feet are certain we walked ALL of the Washington D.C. area….MONUMENTS!!....the Washington, World War II, Vietnam, Korean, Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers, Lincoln, and Jefferson, as well as much of the Smithsonian. Oh yes, and many of the hotdog/pretzel stands along the way. What a clean and friendly capitol we have! It was a great experience. But, that was a side blessing, we were there of course to work at two local churches. <br />
<br />
Shepherd's Gate Church was our first stop….Pastor Dan Duis and his wife Scotti treated us so special, they hosted us a few extra days so we could experience D.C. and also had us to supper at their home. We enjoyed the music of their sons Tyler and Sam and friend Brad's group Melodime…& thanks to Dave for his direction for the group. Catch the music of this band - they are so talented!! <br />
<br />
Sunday we made the trip down to Monroe, VA (literally in the Blue Ridge Mountains) and sang for Mt Prospect Baptist Church - Doug Turner and his wife Sally had heard me sing at Madison Heights, VA back in 1991 and asked us come to the church where he is assistant pastor. Afterwards, they took us to Natural Bridge Hotel to stay the night and we toured the bridge this morning. It was as spectacular this am as it was in 1975 when I saw it as a Junior in high school. On the way to the airport, I got to see the Shenandoah River run through its valley….I love this part of the country with its rich history!<br />
<br />
We don't take it for granted the work and preparation it takes to host concerts of this magnitude…thanks to all of you who host, pray, prepare, and also to those who travel to get to the concerts…yes, Jack & Marlene York and Denise and Jim LaFave…we appreciate you so much! We want these events to be the best they can be. THANK YOU!! <br />
<br />
Mark and I THINK we fly a lot. We had the opportunity to meet a very interesting lady on the airport terminal bus who had left South Africa on the 15th, had flown thru to Washington, was on our flight to Dallas and in route to Los Angeles!!! She seemed a bit disoriented (no wonder), and we had the grand pleasure of helping her find her way. What a sweetheart she was! Mark made the comment to me, "There are good people everywhere". There sure are.<br />
<br />
We are going home tonight, may get to visit daddy at Reba's Rehabilitation center…when we left Thursday, he was feeding himself (and doing a great job at it) and had walked 128 steps a day or two earlier. We go to Nashville to see Reba receive her Medallion for the induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame next Sunday. After that, we come home and get ready to go to Kearney and North Platte, NE, on the 28th and 29th, then back home for Jacksonville, TX, June 4.<br />
<br />
We hope to see you along the way this summer…it's packed full of great things to look forward to: summer birthdays, a return home visit for our Marine Kyle Eaton and lots of concerts. <br />
<br />
God bless you and thank you for your support of what we do.<br />

The news reports have been alive these days as our world has experienced natural disasters, tragedies, losses, military advances, and in the midst of it all, a royal wedding. Our prayers go out to all who have lost much and rejoice with those who are still intact and helping others. <br />
<br />
Mark and I received news that we will be grandparents again (Mark's Tara), and also aunt and uncle (my niece Autumn). These are days of lots going on!<br />
<br />
My father, Clark McEntire continues to improve and is walking with help! Our perspectives change as to what is good or bad, especially when a person goes from an almost comatose state to putting his cowboy hat on (with superb style, I must add) and tells his stories again. We are so thankful to you who have prayed, emailed, called and visited- we appreciate it so much!<br />
<br />
Cowboy Church TV is still going great guns and our advertisement for our new CD "Passages" is doing well. I've been able to share my story of abuse to many folks around the country and the pairing of these two tools is very powerful!<br />
<br />
Mark and I will be in Clovis, NM on Sunday May 8 for Cowboy Church at the Resistol All Around Ranch Rodeo; May 14th we will be in Chantilly, VA at Shepherd Gate Church & May 15th in Monroe, VA at New Prospect Baptist Church. May 22nd we’ll be in Nashville for Reba's induction; May 28th in Kearney, NE and May 29th in North Platte, NE. Check out our website for all the details www.susiemcentire.com.<br />
<br />
I want to remind you that our concert with Mud Springs Gospel Band in Antelope, OR will be August 14 @ 4 pm NOT the first weekend of August like we usually do. See you there.<br />
Mark and I have so enjoyed being in the NW these last 2 weeks. Hiking, climbing, and eating great fish, visiting Anna and our kinfolks & friends here. We participated with Transition's Gate in Spokane and were so blessed to see so many support this great ministry.<br />
<br />
We are still adamant about eating right, find information on the Paleo Diet on our website along with Advocare, and the skin products I use from "NuSkin". Contact us if you need more information on any if these products. www.susiemcentire.com<br />
<br />
Ladies, make plans now to attend our annual Pamper Me Ladies retreat the first weekend in November in our hometown of Atoka, OK.<br />
<br />
CHRISTMAS.....Yes, it's closer than you think! Let's get that Christmas program booked for your church, business, family, or office. Dates are still available!!<br />
<br />
"May the angels protect you; troubles neglect you...." from "Never Alone",<br />

I am writing this letter just hours after a devastating tornado hit our part of the country here in Atoka, Oklahoma. Although neither Mark and I nor any of our immediate family was hurt, folks have lost their homes, possessions, and even loved ones…and a local school facility is a complete loss. On top of our busy lives "as is", here piles on "much more to do". Loss of revenue, furniture, clothing, possessions that mean so much…yet in the midst of that we let it all go and thank God that we still have each other. Our prayers go out to those who have lost. <br />
<br />
THE greatest thing I see at work after such a catastrophe is the sense of community that is felt. People of all ages, races, genders come together, roll up their sleeves, slip on a pair of muck boots, and get to work. They bring food, they hug and cry with those affected. We are drawn together in hard times…that has been proven throughout the history of our country. <br />
<br />
Mark and I want to thank you for your faithful and generous support of what we do. Our mission is to bring "Inspirational and Entertaining Presentations of Substance" to our audiences across the country, and you help make that possible. <br />
<br />
Cowboy Church is still on the air and doing well. Russ Weaver and I have had a hard time being in the same spot as often as we need, but we are all working hard to keep things as smooth as possible. The KwikScan Bible has been a very popular item as is our newest cd, "Passages". <br />
<br />
Many of you have asked how my father, Clark McEntire is doing. We have great news!! Although he still needs fulltime care, he has been moved to the Reba Rehabilitation Center in Denison, TX and daily decks out in his jeans, shirt, and black felt cowboy hat! Daddy continues to improve a bit at a time, is talking, taking regular food, and is standing with help<br />
for extended periods of time. A huge blessing is that he knows all of us…and we still get to hear his great stories!! Funny….I'm listening more intently now….<br />
<br />
God bless you and Happy spring!<br />

Just a short note (there is laundry and a van to be unloaded!) to say thank you so much for all your calls, emails, thoughts and prayers for our father, Clark McEntire.<br />
Daddy is holding his own right now….he is resting and doesn't seem to hurt…we are giving him lots of updates about what is going on with each of us and loading him up with lots of hugs and kisses. Things I haven't said to daddy in my 50+ years keep spilling from my heart…I want him to know how much I love and appreciate him and saying THANKS for all the times he took me up in the hills with him to work on fence, feed, or maybe to gather a wild steer. Daddy and I could go LITERALLY hundreds of miles without speaking a word…..I learned so much about ranching and just plain life from watching him. Thanks Daddy.<br />
Mark and I took a break from hospital life to do our part to help make the 2011 Timed Event Championship a success. Record crowds this year - Congrats to Kyle Lockett who is a spectacular rodeo competitor and to all who competed on 25 head of cattle. Church was fantastic with some of the cowboys sharing their stories…what a great influence these men have on the younger ones coming up the ladder of competition. Thanks to Candice Myers who sang spectacularly! and also let me sing with her.<br />
I have to give Mark kudos here….he had 14 minutes to share something meaningful, Spiritual, emotional, and deeply inspirational with the crowd Sunday morning…he did that and more!! I admire the way Mark enters a story, draws people in with him, holds their attention…(great to see cowboys sit on the edge of their seat in anticipation)…and lets the intrigue peak….THEN I see the folks relate to what he is saying…they have entered the story with him, and went away with a renewed sense of hope from the service. Thank God for that. <br />
We came back to the hospital on Sunday evening and spent the night with Mama and Daddy, and Alice. We made the decision for Mama and Alice to go home for the night, but during that time, I had to make the decision to call Mama and tell her that Daddy was giving us signs (breathing) that it may be close to his "going home". That was a tough decision for me…Mark was right there with me being so supportive….but I wanted Mama to be with Daddy IF that was going to be his time. They got back to the hospital and Daddy calmed….a wonderful thing to experience the love, closeness and camaraderie that my parents have with each other. Daddy made it thru Monday as well…family is a wonderful concept God has put together in times like this…Reba flew in with her family…we all went to supper while Mark stayed with Daddy…we laughed and talked about old times and reminisced about experiences we've had in our life with our daddy/grandpa….now we are watching and waiting and looking forward to experience a wonderful homecoming with him. <br />
<br />
In Christ's wonderful and merciful love,<br />
Susie & Mark<br />
P.S. Daddy rallied today and is opening his eyes. What a great thing to see those baby blues!!Susie McEntirehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09531623985388538706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1902293352535596509.post-60769992113695927012011-02-28T17:40:00.000-06:002011-02-28T17:40:31.041-06:00Happy Spring!<div align="left" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: x-small;"></span></div><div align="left" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: x-small;">Hi Everyone…and HAPPY SPRING!</span></div><div align="left" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: x-small;"> Well…at least here in Oklahoma/Texas!

It got cold and icy here in Rapid City for our Sunday Cowboy Church service, but it didn't keep these faithful northerners from showing up to worship with us!! I truly believe that we had the "normal" attendance…and if it hadn't been so nasty outside, more seats would have been occupied and we may have been at capacity. (1200 on the ground floor). We will try and shoot for that next year!!<br />
Western Singer Joni Harms was hampered by the bad weather and we are glad we encouraged her to go back to Oregon when her plane to Rapid got cancelled Saturday night. We love you Joni…will get together again soon!!<br />
Keenie Word, along with the Ft Hayes Wranglers, Miss Rodeo America McKenzie Haley, Justin McKee (rodeo announcer extraordinaire), Terry Nordine (MC), Karen Balsley (talented local singer), Heidi Crawford (NuSkin representative) along with me and Mark….did our very best to glorify God and help bring the folks closer to a relationship with Jesus. We also repeated a 4pm "Evenin Gathering" from last year and had good attendance….some remarked that it was good for them because they couldn't get to Rapid for the 11 am service.<br />
This morning, we picked up the Rapid City Journal…..what great, articulate coverage! Thanks to Shell Jeffery-Tomjack, Journal Correspondent who came, took pics and wrote an awesome report. One quote was "I like the music and the Western atmosphere. We are here to hear the word of God in a different way. We are always open to a different perspective." (Tom Mahr Hot Springs resident) One pastor from Hot Springs got a replacement for his church so he could come to Cowboy Church yesterday. What a deal!!<br />
Many of you were right there with us…we shared a few weeks ago about our expenses there in the theater, and you helped us out. We went in debt free and will have enough to pay our expenses to stay here the rest of the week, attend functions during Stock Show, hold 3 more concerts in the area, and send much needed funds home to the office. THANK YOU!!! Isn't it neat to be a part of a mission trip, right here in the USA?<br />
We are expecting Susie's son Samuel here in a few days. He is competing in the Calf Roping on Saturday….Susie gets to sing the National Anthem that night as well.<br />
We will be in Smithwick, SD 7pm on Thursday, New Underwood 9:45 am Sunday, and Kadoka, SD, 2pm Sunday afternoon.<br />
Happy Super Bowl Sunday!!<br />
Susie & Mark<br />

We had a great and successful weekend here in Kearney, NE. Joel Bieschke and Larry Chamberlain of Creative Community Promotions showcased us on Sunday morning for the Nebraska Fair Buyers Convention where we booked several fairs for this summer! We are so excited! Hope to see you there. www.susiemcentire.com <br />
On Sunday evening, we sang/spoke at First Baptist Church here in Kearney. Over 600 people attended, thanks to Pastor Stan Murdock for his warm hospitality! <br />
We will be in Valentine, NE on Wednesday, Fairburn, SD on Thursday, and Rapid City at the Stock Show on Saturday night to sing Anthem for Extreme Bulls and on Sunday 11 am and 4pm in the theater. Thanks so much to those of you who have donated to help us with the expenses…God bless you!<br />
<br />
Hope to see y'all there!!<br />

Mark and I both left our Oklahoma home on Tuesday - the fall foliage was in the stages of being absolutely spectacular! Things had settled down a bit at our home office…after getting our new cd "Passages" recorded and delivered and the 5th Annual Pamper Me enjoyed…we "got out of Dodge" to tend to other business. <br />
I am writing this letter to you at about 32000 feet on Southwest Airlines flight to Seattle. A little mother/daughter time has been spent with Lucchese the last few days - helping to move her into a new apartment…this gal (me) found my way around Hollywood!!! We had great weather and a really good time. Now headed to see my honey and try to stay warm in Seattle. We are going to a concert tonight with Mark's son Kyle, who has a weekend off for Veteran's Day. <br />
<br />
Pamper Me was spectacular! In reading the comment cards, it is overwhelmingly true that the ladies were blessed. THANKS to our committee who worked for days before and after and hardly ever got off their feet that weekend….for all their love that went into our event, and to those who paid to work! Blessings on you!! <br />
<br />
Special thanks to our special speakers/singers: Eddie Baiseri, Judy Nelson, Lisa Reiff, Cherie Jackson, Ann Lewis, Christy Green, Alice Foran, Denise Lovell, Mark Eaton, Miranda Brown, and Theresa Carpenter. The ladies loved you and I thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! I love being the one who is responsible for an event of this undertaking….it sure makes me appreciate/be gracious when I'm the one enjoying the program. Thanks Ladies for making Pamper Me a huge success!! We are looking forward to next year!! <br />
Cowboy Church on RFD tv is going strong and we have a special offer to the viewers that may help us to financially be able to stay on the air. "Quick Scan" Bible. I think it's for me…those who have trouble retaining material, eyesight problems, etc. It is a wonderful tool to be able to read God's Word. www.cowboychurch.tv. <br />
<br />
Mark and I will be at Circle C Cowboy Church, Mt. Pleasant, TX on November 21, then home for Thanksgiving. All my kids will be with us and Mark's son Kyle will also be joining us. We are looking forward to a great time! We will gear up again the beginning of December with some Christmas concerts…www.susiemcentire.com for our itinerary.<br />
We pray that your Thanksgiving is all you envision it to be. Landing…… <br />
God bless you, <br />

Mark and I are sitting in the breakfast area of Holiday Inn, Ft Stockton, TX…he is studying and I'm answering emails and writing to you. Last night, we had a great time in concert with the Pecos County Cowboy Church. Thanks to Pastor Kevin Weatherby who worked so hard to provide everything we needed as far as venue, sound, and folks to sing to. We had a very warm crowd who sat very patiently and responded to every word we sang and spoke. Thanks to everyone!! Except for the allergies I'm experiencing…<br />
<br />
We have been in West Texas since October 14, and we are headed home…..<br />
<br />
We are turning our heads, hearts, and minds in to Pamper Me and making all our final preparations. Our office staff and committee members have been working so hard preparing for your arrival. Registration will be open as long as we can, but we have to get a count in to our food providers. There's still time for you to register…580 889 5219. Our activities line up is chock full of inspiration, laughter, and fun. Please come and join us!! <br />
I am so excited about introducing my husband, Mr. Mark Eaton to our attendees. I have asked Mark to speak to us and also coach us in some fitness exercises.<br />
You will not want to miss this special event! November 5 & 6. Come to Pamper Me!! www.susiemcentire.com <br />
Gotta go…Mr. S is saying it's time to "Head East"! <br />
God bless you,<br />

<br />
Mark and I experienced a 'whale of a thunderstorm' last night in West Texas! The thunder and lightening were spectacular, but because the cotton farmers are trying their best to get their harvest in…the storm both excited us and made us sad…..the whole experience wasn't too good for them. <br />
We've had some fantastic meetings with really good attendance. We started out this trip at Chapel Hill Baptist Church, Odessa, TX, where the 'Jeffs', pastor one and two, and their wives/congregation treated us like royalty. We stayed the weekend and had a series of concerts and hopefully touched Odessa in a positive way. The church reached out to 1500 homes to invite the neighborhoods to come to the concerts and have a personal relationship with Jesus. There's no telling how long the church will feel the ripple effect from that act of kindness.<br />
We headed up to Lamesa to the Church of the Nazarene Sunday afternoon and the church was full!! Thanks to Pastor Lee and Linda - but especially to long time friends Gary & Judy Jones. We experienced their world right now: COTTON HARVEST! What a blessing these farmers are to the world….It made us appreciate our cotton skivvies. The neighborhood was wondering who in the world these two strangers were in the back yard throwing kettlebells up in the air and doing pushups in the drive way most mornings & afternoons. To see what we do on the road, go to our Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/susiemcentire We stayed/ate/played music with Gary and Judy until we pulled up stakes and made our move on up to Quitaque. <br />
The First United Methodist Church in Quitaque, TX rocked that night!! Methodist/Baptists/and what alls came and we even had fellowship afterwards with cake/cookies/sandwiches. Thanks to Pastor John, but ESPECIALLY Wayde Clay who invited us to come. Wayde and hubby Ronald invited us to supper last night and we had a great time visiting with them. She blessed me (Susie) with a quilt that I will always cherish. Thanks to Terry and Robin Boedeker who let us stay in their home this week. We needed internet and a quiet place to rest…mission accomplished! <br />
Ron & Marianne Brunson have been friends of mine for ages…they minister in Plainview, TX at New Covenant and Cowboy Church. What a sweet group of people that showed up that night! Mark and I just sat on the stage and basically talked our "sermon" and had a really good time there. <br />
We are sitting in the cabin this morning with a cup of coffee and fruit……watching thru the window horses grazing in the pasture next to us and wanting the sun to shine so we can hike in the Palo Duro State Park and see some 'stuff'! Mark is studying across the table from me and I am writing to you and learning my new songs off our cd "Passages". <br />
We are excited about going to Clovis, NM tomorrow night….AND all the places after that….Andrews, TX the next morning and a long trek back to Canyon that afternoon….Lots of windshield time!! WHAT keeps us going are the warm welcomes, the look of PEACE when I sing "Someday I Know" and the awareness of TRUTH in the eyes of folks when Mark speaks.

Fall is certainly in the air….it's only 83 degrees here in Oklahoma today and it is so nice!<br />
Mark and I had a wonderful but busy 'with lots of miles' summer. We just got back from a two month trip and are ready to head to New York and New Jersey this weekend. www.susiemcentire.com for details.<br />
Pamper Me registration is in full swing. We are not having the regular manicure/pedicure/hair festivities as we used to. I feel like my staff (Mary, Doris, Emily and Elise) needed a break this year from all the scheduling and coordinating of appointments. This may return to Pamper Me in the future, but for this year, please come to relax, listen, enjoy, laugh, re-new friendships, and meet ladies from all over the United States. Register at www.susiemcentire.com New location: Victory Life Church, south of Atoka, OK on Hwy 69.<br />
Recording plans for our new cd are coming along nicely. I am "culling" down to 11 songs and it's a tussle sometimes! I've got some really great selections and I know you'll enjoy the cd. We appreciate your prayers and support. Many of you have responded to our request to financially support the recording…we really appreciate that. It will be done by Pamper Me…November 5.<br />
Our thanks go out to Open Range Cowboy Church and Bar None Cowboy Church for hosting us this weekend. Full houses and enthusiastic crowds!! We sold out of cds during the ladies conference and met a wonderful speaker, Eddie Baiseri, who will be speaking for us at Pamper Me. Thanks to all who make our visits happen…we know it's a lot of work….but ain't it worth it?<br />
<br />
You can go on www.facebook.com/susiemcentire and hear more news about us. Mark loves Facebook and is posting pics all over the place. He's busy!! <br />
Speaking of…he's cowboying right now….yes, Mr. Seattle is out on the range and having a ball….just called me on his cell, but had to hang up 'cause a steer went into the bushes and he had to 'go after' him. Sure hope he doesn't lose that cell phone!!<br />
Our Christmas concert season is filling up, but we still have a few dates available. Call 580 889 5219 if you'd like to have us come.<br />
Also, we are in West Texas in October…email if you'd like to schedule a concert.<br />
Cowboy Church at Limestone Gap tonight…hope to see you!<br />
In Christ,<br />
Susie & Mark<br />

<br />
We hope your summer is continuing to be fun and full of family/friends and all kinds of activities.<br />
At this particular moment in time, we are on a plane enroute to Portland where we will travel to Antelope, OR for our annual Antelope Community Church concert at 4pm in the church yard. We always enjoy seeing our regular attendees and meeting new folks every year…we hope to have a GRAND REUNION one year and see just how many we can squeeze into the church yard and the neighbor's yard!<br />
<br />
There was record attendance Sunday at the Cheyenne Frontier Days during cowboy church. The weather was absolutely perfect….Russ Weaver, Ted Wiese, and my awesome husband Mark did a great job speaking, and the Caballero family did a wonderful job leading us in worship in song. Thanks to those who help make this a success, and especially to the Frontier Days Media Committee for all their help and support. See you next year!<br />
<br />
We had 3 cd winners at the service on Sunday….Lonnie Fiscus from Cheyenne, WY, Gene Dombrowski from Longmont, CO and Arnold Goodluck from Houck, AZ . Thanks for playing!!<br />
<br />
Tuesday night, we were in front of a capacity crowd at the Soldiers of the Light church in Casper, WY. What a neat fellowship! If you are in the Casper area, they are a church for the people and you would be blessed to be involved. Thanks to Debbie and Jay, Jean, and Neal and Gail. We had a great time!<br />
<br />
Registrations are coming in for Pamper Me. This is a huge blessing for us to be able to bring ladies to our hometown in order for them to experience our part of the world.<br />

Many of you have asked how my kids' father, Paul Luchsinger is doing. Mark and I spoke briefly with him recently as he stopped off in Cheyenne, Wyoming to watch Samuel compete in the Calf Roping and Steer Roping events while on his way to Montana. When Mark asked about his health, he replied, "Great…great!". Good for him.<br />
<br />
God bless you!<br />
Susie and Mark<br />
