Lowell Mason to perform at Macon Church of Christ March 24

International TV and recording artist Lowell Mason will be appearing at the Macon Church of Christ in Macon, located at 11834 Emmons Street, on March 24. 

Lowell Mason has been called "The World's Smallest Gospel Singer" because of his unique height of only 46 inches, according to a church press release. His melliferous voice, however, has no comparison to his size. When he sings, his booming voice brings a thrill to everyone who listens. 

During his program, you will hear a variety of "old time" songs. The mood can change from a deep moving hymn like "Peace in the Valley," or "The Old Rugged Cross" to a rousing, hand-clapping gospel favorite like "Daddy Sang Bass" or "Put Your Hand In The Hand Of The Man From Galilee." 

The experience of many years of performing to audiences around the world accredits this very talented gentleman with being truly a professional in his chosen field. 

Lowell Mason began his singing career at the early age of only 9 years old. At that time, he joined the staff of "Children's Bible Hour" radio broadcast out of Grand Rapids, Mich. For seven years, he was a regular feature on that weekly program, which was, and still is, heard from coast to coast. During his teenage years, Lowell sang for Youth For Christ in the United States, and Victorious Christian Youth, in Canada. 

After completion of high school in 1955, Mason joined the Cecil Todd Evangelistic Team of Joplin, Mo. This association produced a weekly television program called "Rival Fires," which was seen on more than 150 television stations each week. Mason was a featured soloist on that program during the 1960s and 1970s. 

As a full-time Evangelist, Little Lowell travels nearly 100,000 miles each year, taking the Gospel in song, and sermon to men and women, boys and girls across America and around the world. Since 1992, he has made several Crusade tours to Russia. In joint cooperation with Revival Fires, Mason has helped distribute more than 3 million Bibles to the school children of that nation, conducts revival meetings, helps establish new churches and organizes Gospel Team tours to Russia. 

In 1996, he received his honorable doctor of divinity degree for outstanding achievements in world Evangelism. 

Mason has conducted more than 1,000 Gospel music concerts at the world famous Precious Moments Chapel Complex in Carthage, Mo.

This special area-wide concert is open to the general public and will feature Gospel music "Branson Style," along with a current report on the 16-year Bible distribution program in Russia. There is no admission charge. A free-will offering will be received.
