Gordon Mote, a member of the Gaither Vocal Band, and Gospel Music Association award winner, performed during the Sunday morning worship service and provided a full performance Sunday night at Lake Fork Baptist Church in Alba, Texas. The event was free to the community with Gordon Mote performing classic gospel music as well as contemporary worship music from his own award winning albums. The morning performance was just a taste of what was to come that night and it proved to be an event you did not want to miss. If you attended the evening performance, you were not disappointed! The show was heart touching, moving and even funny with Mote's impersonations and excellent sense of humor. Mote has 8 albums with the 9th to be released in September. Of course, in Mote's words tonight, you were able to purchase a copy "in the middle of nowhere Texas!" Mote performed some of his new music including a song called "New Beginnings." He also sang many favorites including "Through It all" and "Nothing but the Blood." Gordon Mote was born totally blind at birth in Alabama. He grew up in a Christ centered home with his brother, who was also blind. He began playing the piano at three years old and his parents encouraged him to perfect his talent.
