SISTERS IN CONCERT
Sunday, February 24, 6:00 pm, Wynne Baptist Church
Harmony is the blending of various notes and elements that, when they come together just right, create one impacting sound.   Add to that a genetic connection and a heartfelt commitment to convey the love of Christ, and you have the astounding and soaring harmonies of SISTERS.

Kim Lord, Heather Ruppe Day, and Valerie Ruppe Medkiff, all sisters, began their music ministry before they were out of elementary school. It was in 1974, when Kim was nine and Heather was eight, the two daughters and Brenda, their mother, began singing as The Ruppes. Valerie was also a part of the ministry at the young age of four. They went on to experience overwhelming success.  Their most notable song during their years as The Ruppes was the stunningly beautiful, “Under His Wings.”  They had many other top songs including their first number one, “Angels In The Room” from the album " Seasons".  Their 2001 album release Born to Serve yielded a Grammy® nomination.
Years of ministry brought changes for The Ruppes as the girls went their separate ways at various times.  Heather ministered full-time with her gifted singer/songwriter husband, Greg Day. Kim began the successful ministry of LordSong, with husband, Michael Lord.  Valerie continued on with her mom, Brenda in The Ruppes.  Through it all, they continued to minister and they remained very close as a family. Now God has opened the door for them to come full circle and sing together as Sisters and they are loving every minute of it.  
“Sisters has been a dream of ours for a long time. We are so excited to have the chance to minister to people with our music.  Somehow, it's different when Sisters are on stage together.  We have such kindred spirits and, musically speaking, we think so much alike.  It's like God touches us with a special anointing when we sing about Him. We don't ever want to take the platform we've been given for granted.  We know that in any given situation, the audience that we are in front of is full of hurting, broken people.  We know, because we've been "the audience" many times before.  We all have the same needs and wants, the same questions and struggles.  We are ALL living this life and sometimes it gets hard.  But if we have a few minutes to share our music and our hearts just to let people know how good and gracious God is even when life gets tough....what an opportunity that is and may we ever be mindful of that!  We are so thankful that finally, the three of us have been given the chance to sing as Sisters." Today, Sisters is traveling all over the country sharing their dynamic harmonies and deep love for Christ.
