Hey, I am probably an unfamiliar face to most of you. I am Dan Petersheim—better known as “Daryl’s brother.” I started singing with the Garment of Praise in August of ’08. Marcus Fox decided to step down from his former role in the GOP, and I was presented with the opportunity of stepping in.
When I was growing up, which I still am, singing was a part of home. Our family sang together occasionally, Daryl started singing with GOP when I was about seven years old, and my two other brothers also sang in a quartet for a short period of time. Oh, and you can check out the first Little Friends of the Garment of Praise CD.
My voice is on there—even though I am singing soprano. Singing was also part of the culture of school—Fairview Christian School. I sang in various singing groups during my years there. I graduated in the spring of ’08. One of my teachers for the last five years was some guy named Brian Fox, but you probably don’t know him.
Now I have the privilege of singing with the Garment of Praise. Don’t I have something I’d rather do on the weekend than to travel somewhere, sing, and come home? Well, here are three simple reasons why I sing. 1. I enjoy singing. 2. Fairview Christian School is a great ministry to support. 3. I really wish to praise, honor, and magnify the Creator of music, and give blessing, encouragement, and challenge to those whom He created.
