| Praise Festival 2003 |
| To All, Another beautiful day. We had a total of over 20 particiapiants. We had many groups/singers on stage. We had a kids tent with christian kids games and kid events under it. We had a prayer tent with people being able to pray all day long. We had lots and lots of food. God provided a beautiful day. 90 plus degrees and lots of Son. At the Youth Explosion, we had a wonderful time with the groups. 5TW was only 3TW this year due to previous commitments but they had everyone involved with their singing. I found that I really can't dance, ask Zenzo. Holy Fire sounded great and offered an Altar Call. 17 PEOPLE CAME FORWARD. PRAISE GOD! I believe that we doubled the amount of people at the Praise Fest. Lots of young people were at the Youth Explosion. The stage events were awesome. We had the groups Abiding Word Praise Team, Harvest, Simple Truth, Christian Life Assembly Praise Team, The Brohinski's, Elijah, 5TW and Holy Fire. We also had soloists of Mary Shuttleworth her band and Dan Cossette (Mime).. There was lots and lots of Christian Music all day long. Many people commented on how great it was. The vendors consisted of T-shirts to Crafts, as well as food to paintings. Many support groups were represented. Most of the people that came to the event stayed almost all day. We would like to thank all those who helped us. We are looking for more volunteers next year as we are growing and need more help. Pictures of the Praise Festival are coming so please stay tuned. If you didn't make it, we pray that you are there next year. We have already booked Jillson Square for the last Saturday in June, 2004.
