California born singer, songwriter, and worship leader Sue Peters makes her presence known with a unique blend of rock, pop and more with her debut album, “Beautiful Brokenness”. This inspirational collection of songs which speak of human frailty, healing, forgiveness, and thanksgiving were all written or co-written by the artist. Produced and recorded in Nashville and California , by Andy Allen www.andyallen.com (Spirit West Coast, World Vision Artist, IGNITION) and Ron Robinson www.myspace.com/robinson330 , the quality of this project far exceeds what one might expect from a debut album. With the compelling combination of a hard driving musical backdrop against warm, emoted vocals this album has something for everyone. The conviction and sincerity of the lyrical content leaves you with no doubt that this artist lives and breathes the messages she writes about. “I became a Christian at the age of 15 when a really cute guy asked me out and surprised me by taking me to church instead of the expected dinner and a movie! I didn't fall in love with the really cute guy on that date, but I did fall in love. I fell in love with Jesus Christ” says, Sue. “Looking back on my life I can now clearly see how God was preparing me (and still is) for the specific ways He has called me to serve Him and His children. God’s providence is perfect, always!” Sue began singing and writing at the early age of 11. As a teen she toured with a contemporary Christian band as the lead singer. For the past 5 years Sue has served her home community of Holy Spirit Church, in Fresno, CA as their Life Teen music director. You can find her leading worship every Sunday for the 1200+ parishioners who attend the Life Teen Mass. “My teen years were so hard for me. If I hadn’t become a Christian when I did I don’t know where I would be right now. I know now that it was all in God’s plan that I would be involved in youth ministry. He gave me a huge heart for youth, that’s for sure.” Sue shares life and ministry with her husband Chris and their three beautiful children.

"To each day that I live, more I convince myself of that the waste of the life is in the love that do not give,in the forces that do not use, in the prudence egoista that nothing risks, and that, avoiding of the suffering, is going to lose also the happiness!!!" GOOD WEEK !!
"Be grateful to the Father God, by the things that He did and by everything what still He is going to do. ... And if someone that you love, smile for yourself, be grateful!! Be grateful,for all love that you have in your life!" Kisses from Brazil!!
Played "nothing" at mass today... really slowed down, i basically fingerpicked the whole thing. And i had a realization that sometimes the simplest lyrics are the ones that are deepest. And i think often we try to say to much when really God knows our hearts better than we do. I had that realization as i was singin that song that though the lyrics are simple and few, God was singin' the rest of the song in my heart. Thanks for a great song.
btw how are you? haven't had a chance to catch up since last weekend. How was the conference?
“Dear children! In this time of grace, when God has permitted me to be with you, little children, I call you anew to conversion. Work on the salvation of the world in a special way while I am with you. God is merciful and gives special graces, therefore, seek them through prayer. I am with you and do not leave you alone. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
ps: kisses for you my sister and friend! Take care!
