Why I praise Him

Yvonne Fenwick of Granite City, IL is our special guest for this show! She has traveled extensively, singing along side some of the greatest to ever sing gospel music. According to her mother, Yvonne was singing before she talked. By three years old she was singing complete songs, mostly ones she had heard in church. Yvonne's first time singing in church was at five years old. Feeling her daughter was destined to sing for the Lord, her mother started her in voice and music lessons which continued through Yvonne's highschool years. Yvonne continued singing in church and many school programs until graduating. During this time, she also made Jesus Christ her Lord and Savior. A few years later Yvonne was introduced to contemporary praise and worship and began leading worship for small groups in her church. This led to her leading worship for groups ranging from children through seniors and also larger church settings. She currently leads praise and worship for many functions and travels around the country ministering in music at local churches and at Christian Motorcyclist Association events. She has shared worship in Israel during two seperate trips there and is planning a Worship Tour in Israel in the near future. Yvonne has been writing praise and worship songs for over twenty years, many of which are being sung in churches in the US and the countries of Kenya, Uganda, Israel, Jamaica, Mexico, and Jordan. Yvonne's heart desire is to lead people into the manifest presence of God and to share His love through music with as many people as possible. She is a member of Living Word Worship Center in Alton, IL where she is part of the worship team.
