I am Pacita. Originally from Philly, I am a Christian songwriter/musician, (Bass and Violin). I am NOT a singer. Therefore, in order for people to hear my music, I get my Friends to sing, thus the name.
The Body of Christ is so diverse and God has given me music of a number of different styles which include classical, jazz, Latin, Celtic, Hebrew, Country, etc. Though my style is very diverse it tends to be very relaxed. I call it "Smooth Gospel". However, it is all full of the Word of God. Some of the songs are directly from scripture. When I score the music, I generally include the scripture references. It is meant to deliver the Word in such a way that people who are saved will continue to search the scripture. It can be used as a tool to minister. Also, Ministers can use the songs to introduce and enforce their message.
I also hope to help shed light on untapped talent in the Richmond Va. area. I have used singers from various age groups. The youngest was a young boy who was 13 when he recorded his first song on my CD entitled, "It's All About Jesus". (You can hear some of the songs at http://cdbaby.com/cd/pacitasfriends) He sings a jazz tune called, "Like a Little Child", where he scats and really brings the song to life. I am always on the look out for just the right voice for my songs.
I think my group is a wonderful example of how God gives us each different gifts, but together, we can make something beautiful. I don't even try to sing. I am happy with what I have been given and I try to work at improving just those things. The members of the group celebrate each other and are thoroughly blown away by each other. I have tapes of some of our engagements where you can see each singer enter into worship as they listen to each other minister. There are no ego driven members and everyone is so supportive of each other. I love what God is doing. My next project, "Nevertheless, He Came", has just been released and is also available at http://cdbaby.com/cd/pacitasfriends2
Currently, I minister with several groups and churches: Sounds of Rapture, Soldiers of Vision, Offering Band, Shawn Heckstall, Second Baptist (Southside), 21st St. Church of God, In Season, as well as my group.
I am also a parole officer in Williamsburg, Va. Mother of three and grandmother of 9.

Hi Pacita! Your music is very relaxed just as you said it is. I would
like to hear more if it's available. "A joyful heart is good medicine"
and music such as this can certainly help to maintain a joyful heart.

Hi!
I came to your site to read up on yo uafter I sent you the Shout-Mail. You have such clear eyes. I am also a Photographer so I notice everything, sorry to say. (lol)
Howmany songs have you written? Sometime could you place some words towards me on my shoutmail? I have many Cd's now of Artists on here and I always like to know what they are doing and if there are prayer request.
REMEMBER, I will be off here all of, January, but I may look to see if you send something next week and respond. There is one other person I check in to respond to if they have sent a note, for I have known them for many years before here.
If you have important questions, feel free to respond.
Blessings Upon You this NEW YEAR.
