Hey Rocks Stars and Starlets!
I know that I have spent many of times talking with a lot of you and trying to help you understand some of life’s little quirks. And most of the time I don’t have the answers. But then there are times when those things happen to me. And it leaves me not understanding why it is happening, but trust that God is leading me down a path that he has chosen for me. And that time has come for me. It is with deep sadness that I announce my departure from Cheer Up Charlie. This has been one of the hardest decisions that I have ever had to make. I love this band, I love the guys, and I love all of you that have supported us with such love and attention. But as I have said to many of you, I am following the call of God. He has blessed me with an opportunity to continue shaping and molding youth in another fashion. I will be working with a company called Motivational Productions. I will be traveling to schools and doing a little talk for them and showing them some pretty powerful videos to help them make the best possible choices for there live’s. As I said before, God works in ways that we can’t even begin to understand. And though I don’t know fully why he is leading me down this new path, I remain faithful and open to what he has in store. I challenge you to open yourselves up to God. Listen to what he has in store. Sometimes the decision will not be an easy one, but take full faith and trust that he is going to take care of you no matter what. Just so everyone knows, I am not leaving because of any other reason. All the guys in the band have been nothing but supportive and open to the call that God has blessed me with. I am still going to be very much involved with Cheer Up Charlie. I am just not able at this time to be fully involved! So this in not goodbye, more like a brief intermission! I ask for everyone’s prayers as I venture out into this new path, as I will continue my prayers for all of you. And like I said before, THIS IS NOT GOODBYE!!! Thanks so much to all of you! You all have been the best supporters that any band could ever ask for. For all those in PA this weekend please come on out, this is my last show and I would love to see all of you there! I will still have my jason@cheerupcharlie.com e-mail address so please write anytime! I will be popping up on myspace and the guestbook often, and who knows, maybe a special appearance at a show or two! Thanks so much again to everyone, and I love you all very much! We will be talking soon!
God Bless
Jason
