This is just a small amount of the note's cards and letters I receive. I appreciate each and every one.
Dear Shirley, I want to thank you for coming to minister to us through your wonderful musical talents. It is clear to see that when you sing or share a testimony, the love of Jesus is shining through you. It is obvious that when you are singing praises to our Savior, you are singing from the heart, and that enables us to worship with a greater depth. Thank you again for the very special time you and Joe spent with us. We look forward to having you back again. Pastor W. Johnson Rivermont Baptist Church-Danville, VA
Dear Shirley, What a great blessing and inspiration you were to our members and guest on February 10th. Thank you for your testimony in word and song, and for such a wonderfully enjoyable evening. God is good! We are greatful that God made it possible for you and Joe to fit us into your schedule. One man in attendance was overheard saying he was so glad to hear someone sing so he could actually hear the words and understand the message of each song. May God continue to bless your ministry in a mighty way. In His Love-J. Cantrell-First Baptist Church, Flagler Beach, FL

I attended a country gospel sing at the Wesleyan Church in Sanford, Florida. Shirley Bradner, from Mount Dora, often is in attendance and has been a guest concert artist here a couple of times. She has recorded a number of CD's; this night she sang her much requested version of "On My Father's Side," which definitely brings goose bumps. *Central Florida Jazz Society Blue Notes
Dear Shirley, I really appreciate your singing my favorite song, "I Just Want To Thank You Lord," when you came to my church, The First Baptist Church of Mt. Dora.
