Karli Elsrod- Singer- Studio 10
I was born and raised in Indiana, USA where my parents, sisters, nephew and extended family still live. My nephew is three and a half years old and such a joy in our family. When home, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I have been playing guitar for 7 years and singing in front of people since I was a toddler! I’ve never needed a microphone or stage to let my voice be heard. My sister and I would sing on the school bus for our teammates on the way home from games, around the house, and even at sport events. Music has always been a part of my life and I am thankful to God for the gift of song.
In August of 2009, I moved to Kampala, Uganda to teach physical education, health and swimming at Heritage International School. My first time visiting Uganda was in May of 2008. I came to Uganda with a group from Anderson University, where I was attending school. I fell in love with the country and felt God calling me back. This is my second year of serving the Lord in Uganda. At the conclusion of the 2011-2012 school year, I intend to move back to Indiana to teach. I am unsure of my plans, but feel I may be ministering overseas again.
I have been involved with STUDIO_10 for the past two years. I work with Francis, who introduced me to the group and invited me to sing with them. Through STUDIO_10, I have an outlet of sharing my love for music and Jesus. I am passionate for worship through song and expressing my love for Christ. Not only is STUDIO_10 a ministry to me, but a ministry for those who join in the worship evenings.
