    About Gilbert & Sullivan The Gilbert & Sullivan comic operas were composed between 1871 and 1896 in Victorian London. Their sparkling musical Gilbert & Sullivan Austin scores by Sir Arthur Sullivan and their dazzling lyrics by Sir William S. Gilbert have kept them popular throughout the English-speaking world ever since. They’ve been called the presents “Saturday Night Live” of their day for their satiric appeal, but they have proven universal and timeless in their comic and ironic treatment of human foibles through their “airy persifl age” and “innocent merriment.” And the popular appeal of the music has endeared them to millions who cherish “laughing song and merry dance.” They are arguably the most popular “musical comedies” ever written for the stage. Our Mission Entertaining and educating Texas audiences since 1976, Gilbert and Sullivan Austin is dedicated to spreading the topsy-turvy humor and joyful music of W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan.

  • The Gospel of God - Grace Is Greater - Part X - Romans Series
    THE GOSPEL OF GOD - GRACE IS GREATER - PART X - ROMANS SERIES Good morning Life Fellowship. Please join me in a word of prayer. Father, there are these certain moments in life where we just need to pause before you and remember that we are part of something so much bigger then meets the eye. And right now I just thank you that here we sit as a church but we don’t sit here on an island all by ourselves; rather the message that is presented, the worship that is declared, the praises that are offered up to you, the lives that are changed, is something that happens not only here at Life Fellowship but throughout the world. And we are so thankful that we are one church connected to many churches that comprise The Church. God, we just want to say thank you. Thank you that we can align in spite of so many differences on the edges. We thank you that at the heart, at the core there is a common belief that Jesus died for our sins, rose again, and by faith and trust in His grace we can experience forgiveness of our sins and eternal life. And Lord, we exalt in that. We relish the opportunity to say thank you. And God I pray this morning as a pastor serving amongst other pastors in this community, I pray you will be with our local church leaders in our local churches and help us as a family of churches to be salt and light in the community.

Just use the link below to our message board. https://www.audiemurphy.com/msgb/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4734 t is unusual to read anything about Audie Murphy without something I in the text referring to his sense of humor. He was noted for his wit and sarcasm at even the most difficult times of his life. To this part of his persona, we offer a little humor – and to have some fun this day of Halloween in 2020. So, here is the story of how Audie Murphy met “The Munsters”. During the month of September 1962, Audie filmed one of his last black and white films – “Showdown”. Appearing in the film were two child actors - Kevin Showdown for a Munster. Butch Patrick, right, and Kevin Brodie, left, stand with Audie Murphy in a movie still photograph from the 1962 film “Showdown”. Photo source: the Lillian Bailey Collection Brodie, and Butch Patrick.

In just two years, Butch Patrick would become the better-known star. Not long afterwards, in the fall of 1963, Audie made one of his better received films - the western “Bullet for a Bad Man” with Darren McGavin.
