“He is sure fantastic talent!!” - Scott Valentine of Seattle’s Spirit 105.3FM
“Joe Monto is the in-demand voice of our Troops” - KCPQ FOXNews Seattle
There are many things to be grateful for in life. One is having the talent and the know-how to bring your gift that was given to you to your troops and to the world. “We Thank You” was a song written in appreciation for our troops. He performed this song LIVE at Seattle radio stations and blew the DJ’s away. This song was the reason behind Joe being introduced to Garland Mason, father of Chris Mason, who was killed in Iraq in November, 2006. Garland posted “We Thank You” on a web site dedicated to Chris Mason and contacted Joe saying how blessed he was by Joe’s song written for the troops. .” He also has a couple of cover songs posted on youtube, one of which Chris Daughtry’s “Home”, which received over 160,000 hits.
Joe is currently working full-time as a Senior High Youth Pastor at Calvary Chapel South in Kent, Washington.
We need to get Joe Monto’s music to the masses. He has a message that needs to be heard and we’re ready to listen!!
Sir sending you love and many blessings today.. Thank you for the inspiration you do too not allow others to forget our troops. I try not to let them be forgotten. Sometimes, people don't want to think about it anymore.
I just had to write to tell you how much I love you and care for you.
Yesterday, I saw you walking and laughing with your friends; I hoped that soon you'd want Me to walk along with you, too. So, I painted you a sunset to close your day and whispered a cool breeze to refresh you. I waited; you never called. I just kept on loving you.
As I watched you fall asleep last night, I wanted so much to touch you. I spilled moonlight onto your face trickling down your cheeks as so many tears have. You didn't even think of me; I wanted so much to comfort you.
The next day I exploded a brilliant sunrise into a glorious morning for you. But you woke up late and rushed off to work-you didn't evennotice.
My sky became cloudy and Mytears were the rain.
I love you! Oh, if you'd only listen. I really love you! I try to say it in the quiet of the green meadow and in the blue sky. The wind whispers My love throughout the treetops and spills it into the vibrant colors of the flowers.
I shout it to you in the thunder of the great waterfalls and composed love songs for birds to sing for you. I warm you with the clothing of My sunshine and perfume the air with nature's sweet scent.
My love for you is deeper than the ocean and greaterthan any need in your heart. If you'd only realize how I care. I died just for you. My Dad sends His love. I want you to meet Him. He cares, too. Fathers are just that way.
So please call Me soon. No matter how long it takes, I'll wait because I love you.
Just wanted to stop by and say hello, thinking about Cpl Mason and how grateful I am for our soldiers and veterans. Even in the darkness, there is always a spark of light, a spark of hope...all because of Jesus. Here's wishing you a peaceful and lovely Summer.

During this Christmas season, please remember my mother's words in the song "Road to Elmersville" . . . "you can find the good in people if you just look past the bad, one day i'll come home to this place, yes i will, my life is a road . . ."
Some won't be home for Christmas, but Jesus is in your heart wherever you are, just like my mom is in mine!
