"Go into all the world...”"
From churches, conferences, coffee houses, camps, and retreats in their home state of Tennessee; to the native Indian teens of Northern Ontario, Canada; from sharing God's message at the Hard Rock Cafe in Memphis, to singing His praises in the city parks of Lisbon, Portugal; from the impoverished mining country of Eastern Kentucky, to university campuses in the Hunan Province of China; God has used flyfaith to touch countless lives.
In November of 2000, God planted a seed of passion in the hearts of two young women. What seemed a simple gesture to help a friend fill a performance slot at a coffee house, flourished into a friendship and ministry that has allowed flyfaith to carry God's message of love and hope literally around the world.
Until the summer of 2007, Liza Bates, Cynthia Floyd, and Cheree Bailey (Cynthia'’s sister), led worship and played events through the ministry of flyfaith. As the opportunities for the band’'s ministry grew, Cheree’'s priority as a wife, and as mother of three boys made it difficult to maintain the travel and time commitments of the band. And, because God’s timing is always perfect, Liza and Cynthia met Sarah Beth Kerr on a mission trip in June of that year. Sharing the same passion for music, missions, and making a difference, the girls knew that God had ordained their friendship with Sarah Beth.
"I will praise You, O Lord,
among the nations..."
God has continued His great work in the lives of these girls throughout the past two years. Fueled by their radical passion and the power of Gods presence in their lives, they have penned original songs and honed their instrumental and vocal skills to a new level. As they have sought Gods leadership, He has led them to understand the next step in their journey.
Early in 2009, flyfaith began praying about recording a new album. Many people have asked
over the past few years about the girls recording again. Now, five years since their first project,
Worship 101, God is leading them to record a full-length CD. It is so important to have
something we can leave with people in the places we play to encourage them in their daily lives or to share with family and friends that may need to hear of the hope found in Christ. flyfaith is committed to seek Gods leadership as they plan for the future . Please partner with them
in praying not only for Gods provision of resources, but for clear direction as they move
ahead and continue their ministry.
Imagine that perfect place...maybe it's your favorite chair. You settle in and are immediately enveloped in it's familiar comfort...and you breathe. That familiar, comfortable place is where you'll find yourself when you listen to the unique sound of flyfaith.
With their tight harmonies, these girls bring a fresh face to acoustic rock, and add new dimension to modern worship. flyfaith uses a mix of original and cover material to deliver a positive message with a passion to make a difference.
"My soul shall be satisfied...and my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips." Psalm 63:5
