Arden, NC - The McKamey’s song ‘I Am Home’ from their project ‘Fresh Manna’ reached the #1 position on Singing News December Chart. The song marks their second #1 off of this project…repeating the double number one success of their very first project with the Horizon label titled, ‘With Feelin’. ‘I Am Home’ was the follow up release to ‘The Good News’, which was written by Peg and Ruben McKamey’s youngest daughter Sheryl Farris and went to #1 in June of 2005. ‘I Am Home’ is a wonderful song that captures the heart of the listener, offering the comfort of the heavenly home created by our Father to people living in a world full of confusion.

Peg says the song makes her think of her parents who have gone home. She tries to imagine the streets of gold and walls of jasper and a place where there is no sorrow, no sin and no pain. “It’s hard for us to even picture it…heaven is almost beyond our comprehension…the very idea that God would conceive such a home for us is hard to grasp. But isn’t it wonderful that we can rejoice and be glad of the hope that we have in Christ that gives us that home!”

‘I Am Home’ was a favorite this year at NQC, even though it had to be performed without Ruben due to severe back pain. Peg reports, “Ruben is feeling much better. He never misses NQC and it was difficult for him to be unable to attend. He still has trouble standing for any length of time but is getting better at judging what he can do and is traveling with us again.” Several doctors have been consulted about Ruben’s spine and they hope to have a diagnosis soon.

“We thank you for all of your prayers for Ruben, your support of our ministry and for your requests of ‘I Am Home’. This song has a special place in our hearts…and we know it has a special place in yours as well. After thirteen #1’s…we are still amazed each and every time, God chooses to use one of our songs to bless people. To us, that is what it means to have a number one song…it means people are being blessed by the Lord!”
