Van Mitchell, Jr. - Recording Project

My name is Van Mitchell, Jr. I’m a preacher’s kid…grew up in the ministry…ministry is all I know. Gospel music and preaching is my passion. Presently, I serve as a minister of music in my local church and I teach middle school English, Bible, choir, and drama.

I attended Christian schools throughout elementary and high school. I’m thankful to have graduated from Southeastern Free Will Bible College with a Bachelor’s degree in Music Ed.

God has been so good to bless my songwriting efforts. I’ve written and/or co-written songs that have been recorded by The Inspirations, The Dixie Melody Boys, The Taylors, Debra Perry and Jaidyn’s Call, Keepers of the Faith, Royal City Quartet, Curtis Hyler and Jubilation, and Men of Faith. The song “I’ve Never Known a Day” (recorded by The Inspirations) rose to #7 in the country in the Singing News top 80…then it received the BMI award in Nashville, TN for being one of the most played songs on Christian radio in 2011.

Now…I’m undertaking a new endeavor to strengthen my ministry of music. I have partnered with Serenade Studios in Bladenboro, NC to make a ten song project of original songs with some of the greatest studio musicians and back-up singers in Gospel music today. Joey Gore, a phenomenal pianist and arranger, will take 10 of the songs I’ve written and compile them into my very first professionally recorded solo project.

In order to lighten the burden of this financial undertaking, I’m asking for some folks to come alongside of me and help me invest in this ministerial effort.

If you’ve ever been blessed by my songs or by Gospel music in general, would you consider coming aboard? If I could get 30 of my friends to donate $100, 60 of my friends to donate $50, and 120 of my friend to donate $25 a piece…the project would be completely paid for before I even stepped inside the studio.

Those who donate $25 or more will receive a “thank you” of one of the first CD’s mailed directly to you (shipping included) as soon as duplication is completed. AND those who donate $100 or more will receive the same as the $25 donor PLUS they will have their name, business, organization, “in memory of”, or “in honor of” listed in the CD cover under “Van Mitchell Ministries Faith Partners” (unless they make a special request that it not be listed). Even if a $100 donor lists their name as anonymous in Go Fund Me, I still have the record of your name with your gift to place on the CD cover.

The timeline for the completion of the entire project is between the end of the summer and Christmas. The sooner all the funds are available, the sooner the project will be finished.

God has laid it on my heart to do this. He will provide. The project is already scheduled to be made, but the length of time it’s going to take to complete will be greatly expedited with your generous donation.

God bless you!
