Letter from the O'Boskys 1-28-08:
Wow...the Balyeat Family brings a message of God's love and joy like none
other! I especially enjoyed seeing how the girls have improved their skills
in playing and singing this past year! Thanks Nancy and Bob for displaying
the love of the Lord in such a meaningful way as you set up and tear down
and interact with your family. It is a joy to be around your family.
Thanks so much for the encouragement from sharing the Word Bob and with
Nancy's awesome voice in the Rock song. I was truly blessed. Thank you
all so much for coming again to sing to our Escapees Christian Fellowship RV
club Quartzsite Gathering. God's richest blessings on you!

letter from Rev. C. P. Walsh summer 2008:
The Balyeat Family was inspirational and it was evident that their first love is JESUS. I highly recommend this family for any Gospel Service or church outing. God has blessed this family from oldest to youngest member. We were blessed beyond measure to have them with us. They are welcome back any time.
In Christ,

Dear Balyeat family
Thank you for the CD and the letter! We really need to send this thank-you before we wear the CD out. We are really enjoying it! We are glad to hear how the Lord is guiding you and hope many people are pointed to Jesus through your ministry...
I really appreciate the spirit you show on the CD of giving God all your music efforts from youngest to oldest! That seems so good for our children to hear!
Keep pouring out for Jesus!

letter from Cambridge Retirement Community 10-25-06:
To Whom it may concern,
The Balyeat Family delighted our residents with a summer musical program from the Sound of Music, beautifully played on a variety of instruments by all the members of the family.
Their costumes and dance were beautiful: their family interaction, endearing.
We look forward to having them return to Cambridge Place in November to perform their Holiday music program for our residents.
I would encourage you to ask them to entertain you.
Sincerely,
Cherie Berg
Activities Director
Cambridge Place
