035: Ten Minutes With…Wes Hampton from Gaither Vocal Band

035: Ten Minutes With…Wes Hampton from Gaither Vocal Band

Wesley Adam Hampton was born December 8, 1977, in Memphis, Tennessee. While he was a college student at Trevecca in Nashville, Wes invited Andrea Means to attend a Gaither Homecoming concert for their first official date. After two years at Trevecca, Wes and Andrea were married and moved to Birmingham, Alabama, to complete their education. Wes graduated with a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Alabama, then worked as a minister of worship for The Church at Brook Hills in Birmingham for two years before getting a phone call from Bill Gaither that would change his life nearly overnight. Wes joined the Vocal Band in July 2005 as the group’s tenor. His transition into the Vocal Band was virtually seamless, since he already knew the parts to nearly every song in the GVB’s repertoire. And since that time, Wes has done far more than sing a part. He has joined the ranks of an exclusive handful of world class singers who have sung tenor for the Gaither Vocal Band over the years.

Hometown Heroes – In My Father’s Kitchen – 9/17/24

In My Father’s Kitchen

“Hometown Heroes” on Family Life

You have been at an intersection, where a homeless person is standing at that street corner, holding a cardboard sign asking for help. Many people drive by, which makes sense, because a cash handout might be diverted toward furthering an addiction.

Yet, one of those episodes became the spiritual calling for someone who knows a thing or two about feeding people. He bought a lunch, circled back, offered it to the man, and had a life-changing conversation.  For both men.

John and Leigh-Ann Tumino launched In My Father’s Kitchen in 2011 to address the physical and spiritual hungers which were widespread in parts of Syracuse.

Chef John Tumino tells our Mark Webster about this ministry, the people it serves, and how the people who carry out this kind of loving work are transformed too.

 

You can find more about In My Father’s Kitchen from their website, online video and history.

IMFK also sponsors a program to help panhandlers and homeless individuals to build up work experience and skills. It is cleverly named “Hire Ground“.
