Year-old Texas talent and another
recent Nashville Star contestants.
to being approached for
Nashville Star by Sony Music of
Nashville, Howard spent the last six
years in Hollywood, Calif., where he
recorded an album in 2000 with produc-
er Aaron Zigman (of Ray Charles and
Christina Aguilera fame) that chroni-
cled his search for music identity. Since
then, he's been a part of monthly shows
throughout the Los Angeles area that
took on a "Cali-country" theme and grad-
ually included patrons like Vince
Vaughn, Deanna Carter, Lucinda
Williams and Dwight Yoakam.
Meanwhile, Lambert has been pur-
suing her music career for three years.
She has already had two songs on the
Texas radio hit charts and garnered sev-
eral Texas music achievement awards.
She was recently featured in a TV com-
mercial and the feature film "Slap Her,
She's French." As a result of her third
place finish on Nashville Star, she is
being pursued by some of the country
music industry's "heavy hitters" and
looks forward to a summer filled with
touring and song writing. Both and
Lambert and Howard have upcoming
albums.

Home Tour
Takes Place
This Week
By CLINT CLAYBROOK
The first-ever "Tour Of
Homes Around Greenville,
Ca" is scheduled for
Saturday, and Sunday, from
1-6 p.m. each day.
The tour will feature sev-
eral of the most historic
homes in the area as well as
a tour of the Meriwether
County Courthouse in down-
town Greenville.
Tickets are $20 each and
may be purchased in advance
at Kirk Interiors in
Greenville or from Dot
Argroves, 205 Highway 100
in Greenville.
Proceeds will benefit the
Greenville Presbyterian
Church-which is one of the
featured stops on the tour.
The church dates to 1829
and was built shortly after
the 1825 treaty with the Creek
Indians.
It has recently undergone
a major restoration. Services
are still: held there 'every
Sunday at 11 a.m.
Dot Argroves is credited
with organizing the Tour of
Homes
Homes featured on the
tour other than the Greenville
Presbyterian Church and the
County Courthouse are:
*The Harding Weekend
Home: It was, at one time, the
Stacy Presbyterian Church,
originally built in 1866 but
destroyed in the great
cyclone of 1893 and rebuilt
that same year.
Andrea and Jim Harding
bought it in 1999 and moved
it to its present location,
A two-year restoration
project, helped bring it to its
present state.
Many of the old church's
features are retained, includ-
ing an intriguing little sitting
room reached through a bed-
room in the front loft.
One of the spectacular
features is an enormous din-
ing table and unique chairs
made from the old church
pews.
*Twin Oaks-This stately
home offers a splendid inter-
pretation of the Greek
Revival style of architecture.
It was built in 1852. A restored
French pioneer log cabin on
the property was built around
1800 and the original cook
house still stands.
It was restored and is
presently owned by Drs.
Anne and Harper Gaston.
*Argroves/Neely Home:
Built in the Iate 1940s by
Willis and Beulah Biggers.
They are the grandparents of
Hariet, who with her husband
John, are the current owners
who recently rebuilt and
greatly enlarged the original.
Entering, you are greeted by
a large mural in the foyer.
It covers a complete wall
and depicts Harriet riding
horseback and John hunting
quail. Charlie the peacock,
the cows and Duke and
Duchess, the dogs, are also
depicted in the mural.
This is a home built on
grand scale, where "spacious"
is a key word.
*Harding Home: Built in
1983, this home evokes the
styles from four centuries,
from the t8th into the 21st.
A comfortable family
room at the rear of the cen-
tral hallway is the heart of
the home.
It is flanked on the east
by an inviting sun room and
on the west by a brick-floored
screened porch. Landscaping
and charming outbuildings
add to the allure of this rep-
resentative of Virginia
Tidewater design.
*Georgian Inn- This ele-
gant white-columned two-
story home was designed by
Henrietta Dozier an Atlanta
architect
It was built in 1914 and
was originally the residence
of Nathan E and Martha Park
Culpepper. It was later owned
by Harvey C. and Sarah
Culpepper Cutts.
It was renovated in 1985
by Angela Argroves Hill and
is currently operated as an
elegant bed and breakfast.
This Victorian home is
furnislied throughout with
beautiful antiques and fami-
lY heirlooms.

Miracle Ministries Recognized
For Work With Health Needs
The Miracle Ministries church in HogansviUe recently
received recognition at the Aligning Faith and Health cor
ference.
The conference, sponsored by District IV Health serv-
ices, was held in BarnesviUe May 6th and 7th and was titled
"A Movement Towards Excellence".
Prior to the conference, participants were asked to nom-
inate faith based organizations who have made significant
strides in the development of faith and health collaborations
in West Central Georgia.
Wanda Lowe, RN nominated the Miracle Ministries church
because of the unique interventions they have made towards
the health of their congregation.
Some of the activities that lead to the nomination include:
sponsoring a community health fair, weight monitoring,
planned walking time together, physician lecture on sexual-
ly transmitted diseases, and working to increase the nutri-
tional value of foods that are served at church functions.
But the activity that caught Wanda's attention the most
was when Pastor Chris Evans had the congregation dress
comfortably for church during the month of August so they
could do some exercise during the worship service!
In making the nomination for the award, Wanda summed
up their accomplishments by saying, "I believe this type of
activity in the church will make an impact on others, enrich-
ing the community and therefore make changes in our soci-
ety. Congratulations, Miracle Ministries!
