Tonight's Combined Choir Concert At The St. Georges Anglican Church Was AWESOME! Thanks Cindy Tully For The Personal Invite! #amazing
In life, I am sure that we are fully aware that there is a good side and a probable bad side to everything we do. The bad side with regards to me writing so much online and spending so much time marketing on social media, is that people like Conaree - St. Kitts' Cindy Tully will start condemning me for not having A LIFE because she's on my email list, doesn't have a facebook though and the only emails she claims to be receiving daily, comes from Khrystus Wallace.
Cindy, quite down to earth, extremely, extremely, extremely intelligent, fearless and outspoken person just like me, who loves the Lord a whole lot, therefore forced me to get off the computer and go out the house and attend her Combined Choir Concert tonight.
I am grateful that she personally came all the way from Conaree - St. Kitts yesterday, ASKED MY MOTHER FOR A CHAIR AND SAT DOWN IN MY YARD UNTIL I RETURNED, just to hand deliver me a ticket to her choir concert which she had secured just for me. (BLUSHING!!!!!) - i kinda have a THING for bold girls. (ooops that slipped)
Now let's get into the meat of the article!
Under the more than abled leadership of Reverend Jeremy B. Francis, a very good friend of mine in gospel ministry, tonight's Combined Choirs from the St. Georges Anglican Church, The Moravian Churches and The St. Christopher Choral Society, accompanied by Mr. Christian Nathaniel on the organ and Mr. William's Brass Ensemble, held a whopping Hymn Festival at The Georges Anglican Church.
At my Dare 2 Be Different International Victory Centre - www.daretobedifferentskn.com, we sing mainly contemporary songs at our youth church and a few hymns now and again. Therefore it was indeed a treat to go back to my boy days and early church upbringing and hear many of the great and powerful hymns of the faith sung so lustily and melodiously.
What thrilled my heart even more was to listen to Sister Claudette Manchester give some history about the hymn and its writer before the singing of each hymn which was either rendered by the choir alone or the choir and congregation. That to me was the best part of the night, for as you are fully aware, reading and listening speeches and sermons is my forte.
It humbled me to learn of the trying and hurtful times many of the writers were experiencing when God's Holy Spirit impressed on them to put pen to paper.
I'm sure that as they look down from the portals of heaven, never in their wildest dreams, they would have ever thought that their songs of yesteryear would be making such a massive impact around the globe over the decades.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh What a Hymn Night Tonight Was!
Let me now tell the world of the vessels that God used tonight to bless me and countless others through song.
Let's meet the choir!
