The Mulicultural Praise Fest was Phenomenal!

I hope you had the opportunity to attend the 2nd Annual Multicultural Praise Fest that took place this year at The Cleveland Zoo. If not, PLEASE, plan to attend next year. It is such an inspirational event. It was amazing to look up at the Praise Team and see people from NewSong Church and The Church On The NorthCoast that I have enjoyed listening to for many years, along with others. Their voices blended in a joyous harmony that was so uplifting. The Praise Team Band, comprised of anointed musicians from various area churches never missed a beat. Then we were blessed by the praise stylings of Britt Nicole (I'm Coming Back To You), Jaci Valasquez (I Get On My Knees) and the ever amazing Minister Marvin Sapp (Never Would Have Made It). Pastor Louis Kayatin gave a rousing talk about mending hurt feelings and Pastor Alan Fung delivered a heartfelt message about uniting as a Christian family throughout all ethnicities. Danita Harris (Channel 5) and our own Len Howser (95.5 The Fish) were wonderful hosts offering interesting information about the various artists, the event and sharing their own hearts for Christ. Their beautiful smiles just radiated throughout the massive crowd. Dariana Delgado, Tina Farmer, Ronnie Knight and Ed Powell also brought their love for Christ and their broadcasting expertise to the stage. Every seat was a winner as the sounds of worship could be heard throughout the entire Zoo. HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE NEXT YEAR!! Thank you Marcella Caffe and Ruby Alexander for creating such a marvelous event, which helps support the M.C. Chatman Center for Humanitarian Services. May the Lord continue to bless your efforts.
