A heartfelt welcome to you as you visit Shining River, the official web site for the music of Lisa Prokopowitz.

I am a Christian singer, songwriter, and guitarist who is devoted to sharing Jesus; His love, faithfulness, and goodness through music. By the grace of God may this web site always lead you to The River, that is , the "River of the Water of Life" spoken of in
Revelations 22:1.

Shining River is a place where you will find life and sustenance, where you will be filled with Living Water, especially when all around you seems to be barren and dry.
It is my hope that this site will encourage and minister to you, and that you will come back to it again and again.

Upcoming Public Appearances

Go to my "Appearances" page for a list of gigs scheduled in the coming months. Some are solo, some with groups..... My prayer is that ALL will be a special time together ... and hopefully YOU can find one that's convenient for you, and bless us with YOUR presence!

Go to my Music page to find out more about how you can listen to songs and/or buy CD's. Also, be sure to check out my Myspace Page, not only to listen to more music, but to stay in touch as well....

Non-Musical Writings

If you hang around me long enough, you'll realize that I LOVE to write! Not only music, but also encouraging words to inspire others to draw near to Jesus. Check out my "Manna Blog" for brief words of encouragement, as well as my "Meditations Archive" for links to more extensive prior writings. See an overview of all these writings at my "Meditations" page.

If you would like to be informed when I post new blog entries or meditations (as well as info about upcoming events, etc.) be sure to join my E-mail List.

What's New?

As of January 1, 2010

Happy New Year!

Wow, December was a busy month!!! I haven't even had time to update the site. Too much singing (that's a good thing I suppose!:) I'm posting a few new upcoming gigs for 2010, and hope to be able to do some other updates as well in coming days. Hope your Christmas season has been WONDERFUL, and that your New Year is BLESSED!

Newly Designed Website

Well, for those of you who frequent this site, you can't help but notice that there has been a really big change. Shining River has a whole new look; thanks to my husband, Bob, who has redisigned the entire web site. I'm sure you'll agree he's done a REMARKABLE job! Thanks Bob! :)
