THE GOOD NEWS TRIO
Tanya Messer, Max New, and Marcelene New have been traveling, carrying
the Gospel across the Southeastern United States since January 1996.
They never expected to still be together and doing this for more than ten
years. Many people have been singing longer. But rarely do you find the same
people staying together. Tanya, Max, and Marcelene have been amazed to see the
hand of God at work in their lives; from the founding of the Good News Trio to
His leading in their personal lives. They continually look to God’s
leadership in all that they do.
The Good News Trio has a new project, “WALK WITH ME JESUS.”
This CD is the first for the trio in a couple of years. “We wanted to get
a new CD recorded much earlier, but the timing has not been right until now. We
have included a number of old traditional gospel songs, such as
“I’ll Fly Away.” There are some songs written by Max and some
other songs which are special to us.” The title song, “Walk With Me
Jesus,” is one of those songs which Max wrote. If Jesus is not walking
with us our paths stray so easily. This song says: “We will not get far,
Lord, unless you’re leading the way.” Marcelene writes,
“Our prayer for us and for you is that we will ask God to continually
walk with us. He is willing and waiting to do just that. Just ask and
receive.......receive the peace of knowing God is holding you in His hand,
receive the comfort that only He can give, and receive the blessings He so
wants us to share with Him. The Good News Trio has gone through many
experiences in the past years. We have struggled with family and friends
who have had serious health and spiritual issues; we have seen those whom we
love go home to be with our Lord; and we have had many, many wonderful
experiences in our lives. And, through all of these things, we have seen
God’s hand at work in many lives. We give Him all honor, glory, and
praise, for we have been so blessed.”

scares; and through daily obstacles in their lives. They know that God
still has a work for them to do, and their mission is to complete that
work. Each knows that they must always strive to be in the will of God
for their lives. They wish to share with you their testimonies of God’s
love and the Good News of Jesus Christ through their music. The motto of
the Good News Trio is: Wherever He Leads, We Will Go!!! With love and
blessings from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!!!!
