Al Langer: Author of the book: A NEW BEGINNING, The Compelling Story of One Man’s Journey Against Overwhelming Odds, wrote about his journey of faith from the time he experienced the horrors of World War II as a so called war child, growing up in a devout Catholic family of eight, trying to re-establish once again the peaceful environment of his birthplace in Sudetenland that his family once knew before being expelled from their homeland as a consequence of a war his family was not a part of.

In searching for greater opportunities and a better future, he immigrated to the USA at age 21. This was truly a new beginning for him that took him from not speaking English, working for minimum wage in an unfamiliar environment, to president and owner of a company he stayed with for 46 years.

After retiring, he wrote and published the book A NEW BEGINNING, which was chosen Book of the Year 2011 by Conversation Book Club. His story pertains in part to information regarding the little known part of history of the fate of the ethnic Germans from Eastern Europe. It is meant to inspire others to persevere, and above all to remind us to have faith in God.

Al and Irene Langer have been married forty-five years. They have been blessed with one daughter and three grandchildren.

He is also an active worship leader throughout Southern California. His desire is to bring his gifts to the Church in an offering of thanksgiving for all the gifts that God has given to him.

He wants everyone to experience the power of music in their lives. “I have always wanted to bring the excitement you feel at a live show to every person I meet. When people come to hear us play, I want them to walk away knowing that it was an opportunity to pray. It was an opportunity to come together as a community and worship. I know that music is a powerful tool and I am just blessed that God has given me the opportunity to share it with people”
