Omar
began singing in Honky Tonks south of Houston TX, when he
was 13 years of age. After graduating High School he became
a full time singer / musician traveling with bands
throughout the Southwestern United States. Probably the most
recognized band he played with and helped form, was the
Country Group Perfect Stranger. He has performed in many
concerts with Artist such as Johnny Rodriquez, John
Anderson, Eddie Raven, T.Graham Brown and Ray Price.

Everyone wanted Omar
to record more and release a CD, but he felt he
should back off to see if this was what God
wanted. This would take finances and sacrifice, and
he didn’t want to burden his wife and children, as
he did in years
past. Omar thought, if God wanted it to be done,
then He would provide the resources to do it right. |

In 2003 God opened the door. Omar’s boss, who had
faith in Omar’s walk with God and his talent,
stepped forward with a gift toward Omar doing a
quality recording. In just a few days, another
friend of Omar’s came forward with another gift to
help fund the project. With that, Omar stepped out
in faith, with he and his wife funding the rest. |

The Lord seemed to open a door so that Omar would be
able to hire some of the best musicians in Texas
that he had
known from his former life, including members of his
former band “Perfect Stranger”. Lee Anne Rimes
musicians also played on the project and it was an
honor to hire the country music legendary fiddle
player “Johnny Gimble” to play on the project. He
also contracted two of today’s best Recording
Engineers and Producers, Greg Hunt and Gary Leach,
who recorded Lee Anne Rimes Platinum Album “Blue”,
and recording of other Christian Artist such as
Dallas Holmes, Matthew Ward and Paul Balausch. Omar
is now opening 2004 with his first complete Country
Gospel CD. Put this CD in any comparable category or
genre, and it stands with the best.
What is Omar’s Ministry? If you ask Omar he will be
quick to tell you that he is an encourager. Whether
sharing his songs and testimony to businessmen,
country folk, rough Cowboys, Church congregations or
youth groups, his songs convey a message that
families suffer, because of men not being the
husbands and fathers that God created them to be and
that it is possible for every individual to find a
new life in Jesus Christ and be the husband and dad,
that they dream of being. |
