This month the Fayette County Country Music Club Opry is proud to host a Gospel Show with D’Vine Testament and The Spirit Riders on Monday, Nov. 20. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the show begins at 7 p.m. Admission is $8.

D’Vine Testament is a Christian Music Group who has been performing together for 12 1/2 years. All of the members who include Byron Wren, Dennis Stryk, David Machac, Bruce Lebeda and Joe Dybala have been involved in music for decades, singing and playing in many different bands. Music ranging from Polkas and Waltzes, to Country and Rock. Although none of the members had ever played together, the group came to be by “Divine Intervention”, and a lot of wonderful people in the community were demanding that the group sing a lot more than an occasional Sunday in church. So, “D’vine Testament” was formed, and since The Spirit Riders

have recorded four CD’s.

In addition the group, as well as individually, has performed for many weddings, funerals, country oprys, festivals, memorial services and numerous concerts for churches of all denominations. In general, “We Just Like To Sing.” For the past two plus years, the group, known as “Wren’s And Friends” have been playing classic country music for fundraisers, festivals, private parties and in Dancehalls. Members of this group are: Byron Wren from Smithville, Dennis Stryk, David Machac, and Bruce Lebeda, from Schulenburg, and Joe Dybala fom Fayetteville.

The Spirit Riders, consisting of Ken Brothers, Wayne Beseda, Mary Lou Anderle and Chris Janca, is the name of the group for the show. All four have been members of the Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church Choir for many years. Each of them are very active in church and civic activities. All share a desire to praise our “Lord” with song.
