Through the company’s Green Mountain EnergySun Club^®, residential customers and supporters of solar have the opportunity to give back to non-profit organizations through solar power projects. Contributions from customers to the Sun Club help fund the purchase and installation of solar projects at deserving non-profits each year. Since the program’s founding in 2002, the Sun Club has donated more than $3 million to help install over 700 kilowatts of solar power, which has the potential to avoid more than 1.2 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions each year. That’s like planting 145 trees every year. For more information, visit www.gmsunclub.com.

Mention his name to just about any country music lover and the response will likely be, "What an awesome vocalist!"

Capitol Records signed him in 1992 and it was there that he had a string of hits, including: "Your Love Amazes Me,"" I Think About It All The Time," "Change My Mind" and "Kiss Me In The Car" just to name a few. As John has grown in his walk with Christ, his calling has been to share God's love with his audience.

Moving into a new phase in his career, John's tenor voice remains an instrument that is able to touch all our hearts. Come share in an evening of love songs, hymns and of course, his chart topping hits with John Berry.
