Dear Friends,
Life is good. We are slowly sliding back into the fabulous
routine of life after two incredible and dream-like weeks in Italy strolling
down ancient avenues, dining on decadent cuisine, and singing in magnificent
venues.
As you know, travel can be a daunting experience, but when
you have such excellent company and gracious hospitality as we received in
Europe, it makes it more than worth it. We
were joined on tour by our friends and fellow transformationalists, Harrison
Klein and Marbeth Dunn, and on stage by the phenomenally talented Italian
pianist, Milo Martani.

In the charming, ancient town of Corchiano, we performed in
the newly renovated cultural center where we experienced the excitement of an
appreciative and warm audience. We
received thunderous applause, a standing ovation, encore request, flowers, and
an amazing reception with delicious Italian foods. It was a joy to sing for
such a generous and beautiful group of people.

During our trip we also visited the Amalfi Coast, Assisi, Bologna,
and Rome. We toured St. Peters Basilica, the Sistine Chapel and other majestic
churches as well as so many of the legendary sights and beautiful art that
these places have inherited through the ages. We danced in wild clubs. We enjoyed the best pizza and gelato on the
planet. We had magical conversations with our travel companions and with all
the new friends we made along the way about beauty, love, music, and life.

To cap it all off, we concluded our travels with a brief but
none-the-less exciting visit to London where we saw the staged production of
Mama Mia, sailed down the River Thames, saw Buckingham Palace, the Tower of
London, and had the ultimate shopping experience at Herrod’s.

Now, we return to the United States with an even deeper
sense of gratitude for the innumerable blessings in our lives and renewed optimism
for where we’ll go from here.
As we look forward to the future, we’re excited to share some
news with you. While we were gone,
Jacque put the finishing touches on our new website. Please check it out at www.jeremiahproductions.com. She
put many long hours of effort into making sure it looked right and we think her
work shows beautifully. Thank you,
