There will be a Dan Schall concert at the Scrubgrass Stone Church on October, 8, 2023 at 11:00 A.M. The church is located at 258 Stone Church Rd, Emlenton, PA. Dan Schall lives in Zelienople, PA., with his wife Linda. Through his music and testimony, he conveys his love for Jesus Christ and his concern for his fellow man’s eternity. His ministry focuses on encouraging others by sharing God’s love for man. Dan stutters when he speaks, but the Lord has blessed him with a singing voice of praise to share the Lord’s Words through music. In his early years of his life, he was filled with anger, feeling that even if there was a God, He had forsaken him. Even though he had difficulty in being able to share what Christ had meant to him in spoken Word, God gave him a voice to share it through song. Through his concerts he is able to help others realize what God has given them.
