Gospel music mourns the loss of Richard Smallwood, who has died at age 77 in Maryland from complications of kidney failure. An eight-time Grammy-nominated singer, he battled long-standing health challenges but continued to inspire countless fans with his dedication and heartfelt performances.

Morey Chapel is inviting the community to an inspiring October sing, featuring The Diggles Family from Lexington, Kentucky. After nearly two decades of full-time ministry, this traveling gospel group is set to bring a unique blend of instruments and global musical influences to Vermilion County.
