About Gina Zavalis
Gina Zavalis' song, "In Your Eyes" spent almost two weeks at #1 on the Indieheaven Fan Faves Top 50 Chart! Thanks for all your support and votes!

Check out Gina Zavalis on Power Praise Radio. "In Your Eyes" kicks off Section 5 of the 1/21/09 show. www.indieheaven.com/powerpraiseradio

Gina is also being played on KAJC FM 90.1 in Salem, OR, on internet radio stations www.onejesus.com and on KBCU SATURDAY NIGHTS (Kansas)...tune in online at http://www.bethelks.edu/kbcu

A lifelong passion for music and years of singing in a variety of musical styles are behind the success of Gina Zavalis and the recent release of her debut single "In Your Eyes." Nashville's Beth Schackne of Schack Attack Songs says, "Beautiful melody, nice strong chorus. Gina obviously has a good grasp of the craft; very impressive for a beginning songwriter."

Though Zavalis has been performing for over two decades she is just unveiling her song writing ability and the response is overwhelmingly positive. The LA Guitar Academy says, "In her new song, "In Your Eyes," Gina Zavalis' warm tones invite listeners to travel with her on the journey from despair to forgiveness. Her voice, plaintive at first, soars to brilliance as she captures the moment of transformation-a moment of pure freedom. Introspective, brutally honest, Gina conveys a very human moment: the desire for unconditional love, even amid one's flaws".

A native New Yorker, Gina began her career as a young girl in Off Broadway performances and musicals. Theater performance is an extremely disciplined craft that allows the performer to grow in live performance before a wide array of audiences who expect to hear their favorite songs performed with distinct familiarity. Traveling across the country in a number of productions, Gina never failed to live up to expectations.

In a nationally televised event at Yankee Stadium to a sold out crowd, Zavalis sang the national anthem, one of the most difficult songs to sing live for even the most seasoned performer. Tom Seaver is quoted as saying, "Wow, what a voice, that's the best we heard all year!"

Zavalis is working between New York City and Nashville recording a number of new songs with her producer, Doug Beiden, and management through the Lowry Agency based in Nashville. Together they are creating an image that fits Gina's three octave range, capitalize on placing her alongside contemporary female singers that have come before her such as Sarah Brightman, Celine Dion, and Barbra Streisand.

Special Hope Ministry, Pakistan on 1/01/10 - 10:18 AM
Hey Dear Friend
God bless you , I am so happy to write you. My name is Kamran Bannet and i m from Pakistan Christian fellow and preacher of Gospel in Pakistan. I have a Sunday School for christian children in Pakistan.

the Parents cannnot afford to send their children in schools. thats why i opened for them a school where they not only learn the format education but also the Words of Gospel.

Please pray for our mission in Pakistan to teach and preach the words of Gospel in every corner of Pakistan.

We are just in community here only 5% Christians are living here. They have no rights and jobs here. SO, mostly ppl are illiterate so they have jobs only Sanitory works. The Pakistanni Christians are lving very misterable lives.

Please pray for our mission in Pakistan so the words of Gospel set free those christians who are in much need. Also pray for Special Hope Ministry , Pakistan to continue serving in Him.

Best wishes

Kamran Bannet
