Smith’s latest project VERSE. is an all-scripture album featuring twelve songs written word-for-word from the Bible. Jami Smith was raised in the small town of Chickasha, Oklahoma. Her childhood memories include expansive wheat fields ATV riding with her brothers and singing in her hometown church, Sharon Baptist Church. Part of Smith’s charm is that she never left those small-town values behind when she left home to pursue her dream. Humility and grace are undeniably part of Smith’s fabric. The only thing more important to Jami Smith than her relationship with her family is her relationship with Christ. She still lives within 60 minutes of her hometown. Smith regularly partners with her younger brother, Ryan Smith, to write songs. Their most recent collaboration is featured on Smith’s new release, VERSE. Jami and her husband, Justin, have two children, Emory Grace and Griffin Thomas. Jami Smith has known since she was a college student at Oklahoma Baptist University that she was called to be a worship leader. Childhood dreams of becoming the next Amy Grant lost their luster. Smith felt the divine tug of a powerful God. Her obedience to that calling has helped revolutionize worship in churches across America. Smith performs at church services, schools, women’s retreats, conferences and special events. Jami Smith has enjoyed success not only as a worship leader, but as a recording artist as well. Radio stations around the world play Smith’s songs. ‘Salt and Light” from her 2002 release Wash Over Me hovered at the top of the charts. Smith’s 2008 release Faith In You was named one of the top worship albums of 2008 by Christianity Today. That same publication also recognized Smith’s Christmas album Hope Of All The Earth as “something of a revelation” and “an excellent Christmas project.” Jami Smith’s other passions include honoring teachers for the sacrifical work they do in the classroom.

I can contribute something to save these children.” “ONE CHILD AT A TIME.” “ONE CHILD AT A TIME.” My primary objective is to “Break the Chains of Poverty” over generational poverty of individual lives in the Philippines. To “BREAK THE CHAINS OF POVERTY” begins with just one person. That person in turn will be able to touch hundreds of lives in their lifetime making the “DREAM” of “BREAKING THE CHAINS OF POVERTY” a reality. To educate a young person in the Philippines and for that person to become successful in life requires that someone will reach out a helping hand. It will require each one of us to step up to the plate to do our part because there is no way of escape from a life of poverty in the Philippines. If we do not help these poverty stricken young people in the Philippines then the chains of poverty will continue to be handed down through the generations and the chains of poverty will continue. Through only one person it can only be imagined the number of people that will be touched in their lifetime and the generational chains of poverty will be broken for many individual lives and their families. When the dream is big enough the facts don’t matter! DREAM BIG! “BECAUSE NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE” It’s time to make a difference “Yes We Can!” Michael R & Vangie T Ibsen
