He realized that it\u2019s time to stop entertaining Christian youth in churches and take to the streets to preach the Gospel to nonbelievers through music.<\/span>\n\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Back then the songs \u201cWherever You Are, Wherever You Go\u201c, \u201cThe One Who Was Yesterday\u201d and many others appeared. That band was composed of several young people and Andrejs Vesnins (frontman and guitar). Later a passionate and daring Paul Renner (drums) and always a man of fashion Arnis Beti\u0146\u0161 (keyboard), as well as a very modest guy Jevge\u0146ijs Ga\u013cickis (bass guitar) became the heart of the group.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"hof-nachalo-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-1.jpg\" class=\"img1\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-2.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"hof-nachalo-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-2.jpg\" class=\"img2\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-nachalo-2-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"elementor-tab-title-7692\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7692\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\" class=\"elementor-toggle-title\">First Concerts<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-7692\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-7692\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concert activities started with the opening of the popular music store \u201cRendoms\u201d in the Old Riga. The performance was quite successful. There were lots of young people from the church, as well as other youngsters, who came to the opening of the store. The audience was impressed; they responded vividly to the action, applauded loudly and did not conceal their emotions. That was when the guys from the band realized that everything they did should praise God and lead to saving those unacquainted with Him.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then the band was joined by three charming and lovely girl: Alla \u0145ikitina (saxophone, keyboard), who brought unique notes to the band\u2019s music, as well as two backing vocalists \u2013 Aleksandra Lizlova and Ilze Step\u0101ne. Visits to schools and nightclubs began\u2026<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The guys performed for school children and shaven-headed blokes who now and then tried to buy them beer or vodka. After a short while the band experienced a significant loss: Jevge\u0146ijs Ga\u013cickis (bass guitar) sustained hand injury and became unable to carry on his musical activities. The band was left without a bass guitarist, but the guys kept their heads up and moved on eagerly.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After several months a very special musician from Poland Pavel Struga (bass guitar) joined the band. He came to study at the Bible school of the \u201cNew Generation\u201d church. During the very first rehearsal Andrejs suggested that Pavel played on of his songs \u201cThe White Sailboat\u201d, which acquired a special sounding with a bass guitar.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visits of the musical band to various churches went on, as well as constant performances at their church during Gospel Hits events.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<a class=\"img1\" href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-randoms-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"hof-randoms-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-randoms-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"img1\"\/> <\/a>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-randoms-2.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"hof-randoms-2\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-randoms-2.jpg\" class=\"img2\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-randoms-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-randoms-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-randoms-2-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"elementor-tab-title-7693\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7693\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\" class=\"elementor-toggle-title\">A Trip to Apatity <\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-7693\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-7693\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some evangelistic trip to Apatity on the Kola Peninsula comes to mind. The guys went there with their concert program. For many of them it was their first so distant journey. They went by bus first, and then changed for a train in St. Petersburg. As they say, \u201cup hill and down dale\u201d.\u00a0<\/span>\n<br><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This time the band performed at the youth conference. They caught the fire of awakening and were eager to share it with other people. They started to consider recording of their debut album and got moving towards it.

However, the guys had managed to record a demo version of several songs for the future album. About the same time another guy joined the group. Aleksejs \u0145ikitins (solo guitar) had repented at one of the \u201cHearts On Fire&#8221; services.<\/span>\n<br><Br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the spring of 2000 the band decided to go ahead with the album after all. The leader of praising of the \u201cMorning Star\u201d church (Jurmala) Viktors Isajevs has been offered to take the place of a bass guitarist. He blended easily into the team and became a good spiritual and professional support for the rest of the band.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hours-long recording of the album began. It took place in the basement of the Baptist church \u201cMateja draudze\u201d. The studio wasn\u2019t big, but it appeared to be quite cosy. The manager and soundman D\u0101vids Lagzdi\u0146\u0161 welcomed the guys and launched the recording of the album. The young musicians pushed on with the recording of their debut album and intended to make a good job of it; however, they lacked experience and skills. On top of that \u201cHearts on Fire\u201d was about to lose another member \u2013 Paul Renner (drums). His parents \u2013 famous ministers Rick and Denise Renner \u2013 were going to move to Moscow to found a new church. By the time the guys had managed to record all bass and percussion parts. Paul Renner had to leave for Moscow without seeing the album ready. All guitar parts and piano parts for several songs had been ready by then. They were almost there, but the work had to be paused due to the lack of cash\u2026<\/span>\n<br><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Andrejs Vesnins, being the project leader, was really frustrated. He started to work strenuously to raise money and to proceed with the recording. However, despite all his efforts, the odds were against him\u2026<\/span>\n\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Due to certain considerations of the church leaders it was decided to suspend \u201cHearts on Fire\u201d activities. Financial difficulties and the lack of understanding, as well as problems within \u201cHearts on Fire\u201d had thrown Andrejs out of his ministry altogether.

In 2007 Andrejs, being already the head of a small construction company, in a critical situation promised to follow the will of God, if He helped him. God did not hesitate to throw him a lifeline. He gave Andrejs an opportunity to not just address the impending bankruptcy, but even to gain profit and cover the losses of previous years. Andrejs found a fairy good basement, bought musical equipment, and started to build up a new band in order to make good of his promise to God. He called his friend Arnis Beti\u0146\u0161 and offered him to play with \u201cHearts on Fire\u201d again.

It should be mentioned that at that time Andrejs got help from his long-standing friend Viktors Borisovs (technical support). He was a Master of Engineering and for the past years he had been working a professional equipment maintenance and field engineer; therefore, he came very helpful to Andrejs in his new and strange engagement.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By April 2007 Andrejs had a new band\u2019s lineup ready. Brilliant musicians and creative people completed the team. Having accepted the goals and the vision of the project \u201cHearts on Fire\u201d, they started rehearsing. Dmitrijs Karpovs (keyboards), who had been doing praising at the \u201cRiver Church\u201d (Aizkraukle), Jurijs Ri\u017eikovs (solo guitar), a wonderful guitarist, who could impress listeners with an outstanding sound and unusual set of notes; Vladimirs \u0160aloms (drive guitar), who furnished the band\u2019s music with a special rhythmicity. Romans \u201cSCREAM\u201d Mura\u0161ovs (bass guitar) provided unusual dynamics in the songs. Other musicians \u2013 Aleksandrs \u201cSHULTC\u201d Merz\u013cikins (percussion), Valdis Indri\u0161onoks (acoustic guitar), and the girls Ieva Ker\u0113vica and J\u016blija Matvejeva (backing vocals) joined the band later, during the album recording.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-1.jpg\" class=\"img1\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-5.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-5.jpg\" class=\"img2\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-6.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-6.jpg\" class=\"img3\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-4.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-4.jpg\" class=\"img4\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-3.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-3.jpg\" class=\"img5\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-2.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-2.jpg\" class=\"img6\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-28.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-28.jpg\" class=\"img7\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-30.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-30.jpg\" class=\"img8\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-7.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-new-7.jpg\" class=\"img9\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" >\n<\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"elementor-tab-title-7697\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"7\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7697\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\" class=\"elementor-toggle-title\">The Recording Of Album \u201cStop Dreaming\u201d<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-7697\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"7\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-7697\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On 16 August 2007 the band with its ready program entered a terrific building of the sound studio \u201cSound division\u201d. All instrumental parts had been recorded within two days. It is important to note that the recording was performed by a professional and quite well-known record producer Edijs G\u0146edovskis. He quickly set all the equipment and got down to recording. The work was carried on with at GEN studio belonging to Edijs G\u0146edovskis and several keyboards parts, as well as vocals and backing vocals had been recorded there.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At last, after three months of hard work, bringing the recorded music to a desired level, and thorough consideration of the album cover design the long-hoped for album \u201cStop Dreaming\u201d saw the light of the day.

The show was broadcasted live by Estonija Live TV. Next day, on 1 December, back at home, Andrejs presented the soundtracks of the songs \u201cStop Dreaming\u201d and \u201dDesert\u201d at the youth festival \u201cIt Is Time to Take a Stand-2007\u201d of the \u201cWord of Truth\u201d church. Listeners highly appreciated the idea and sounding of the songs and considered them worth of replication.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Performances at churches, selling of albums followed. Long before that Andrejs has developed a desire to present the album \u201cStop dreaming!\u201d properly and at a high level and to ensure that the material was video recorded and went on sale as a DVD product and became as available as possible.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-33-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img1\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-33-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-performance.jpeg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img2\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-performance.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-40.jpeg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img3\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-40.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"elementor-tab-title-7699\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"9\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7699\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\" class=\"elementor-toggle-title\">Presentation concert \u201cStop Dreaming\u201d<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-7699\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"9\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-7699\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, in March 2008, the whole band got together in Andrejs\u2019 studio to discuss the plan of future rehearsals. At this meeting Andrejs told them about his intention to put on the album presentation concert. Most convenient times of rehearsal have been chosen and the day of the concerts has been set at last. It had to happen on 31 May. Andrejs had to meet with musicians or singers two or three times a week. It should be noted that every musician and singer, who took part in this project, also had their own projects, ministries, jobs, studies, and families. Many of them gave a hundred and ten percent for the success of the project \u201cHearts on Fire\u201d. Special thanks and acknowledgement to them for their efforts.\u00a0<\/span>\n<Br><Br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As it often happens, one week before the concert the guys found out that Vladimirs \u0160aloms (drive guitar) had to go abroad for family reasons. Andrejs was really upset and started to look for an urgent replacement that had to be some guitarist, who would be able to learn all the parts. It was quite complicated at such a short notice, as all strong musicians had been already engaged in some performances or tours. At that moment some close acquaintance, Aleksandrs Kudrjavcevs (bass guitar), came to Viktors Borisovs\u2019 mind. Having called him, Andrejs got an instant positive reply. Just prior to the concert the guys managed to rehearse several times and were absolutely ready for the show. As Andrejs wanted the concert to become unforgettable, he decided to engage also the Riga Gospel Choir. During the meeting with the manager of the choir Raili Orrava he offered her to appear personally with the song \u201cThe White Sailboat\u201d and she gave her OK. But it was not enough for Andrejs and he also decided to attract professional dancers. He called his friend Vladimirs Belijs and asked him for an advice and assistance with this issue. After two days three of them were sitting at Double Coffee and discussing the conditions and the dance style for the song \u201cStop dreaming\u201d. Olga Korsak-Zadvornova (choreographer\/stage manager), as well as the manager of the dancing team \u201cDance Studio Axel\u201d set to work.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus, everything seemed to be ready. Still Andrejs wondered: What is it that I haven\u2019t thought over?\u201d Stage lighting has been provided by PRO1 and Jevg\u0113\u0146ijs Juh\u0146\u0113vi\u010ds (show designer) was responsible for that. The company Stage Systems Service, including Art\u016brs Cinti\u0146\u0161 (Project manager) and Artis Rudens (sound engineer), took charge of the sound. Advertising went on constantly and the program was ready. They had only to pray and to trust results to God to ensure the event was successful and provided lots of good fruit.<\/span>\n<br><br>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-6.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img1\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-5.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img2\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-36.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img3\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-36.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-38.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img4\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-38.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-10.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img5\" src=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hof-concert-hvatit-mechtatj-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<br><br>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-597d279 elementor-align-justify btn elementor-widget__width-auto elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"597d279\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\"><a class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" role=\"button\" href=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJ0eXBlIjoidmlkZW8iLCJ2aWRlb1R5cGUiOiJob3N0ZWQiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvaG9mLmx2XC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDIxXC8wNFwvRklMSk1fSHZhdGl0LW1lY2h0YXRqX21wNC5mbHYifQ%3D%3D\">\n<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Watch video<\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6841dc2 elementor-align-justify btn elementor-widget__width-auto elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"6841dc2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\"><a class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" role=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/hof.lv\/en\/media#live-2\">\n<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Photos<\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"elementor-tab-title-76910\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"10\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-76910\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-circle\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\" class=\"elementor-toggle-title\">Concert Program \u201cI Love You Lord with All My Heart\u201d<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-76910\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"10\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-76910\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI love you Lord with all my heart, but the strongest ever was Your love for me \u2013 You\u2019ve saved me&#8230;\u201d \/Andrey Vesnin\/<\/span><\/i>\n\n<br><br>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Within the framework of the Christian Music Festival on 22 August 2009 at the Christian Centre \u201cGood News\u201d there took place presentation live concert of worship \u201cI Love You Lord with All My Heart\u201d.
