Rockin' it at the Ribbon Fest

Saturday, June 19, 2010 the Carolina Voices of Faith (CVoF) took the stage with The Crew and The Gathering FM Band at the Sherry York Kits Ribbon Fest in the Pointe Performing Arts & Rec Center in Fort Mill, SC, to perform for the crowd that had gathered. The Ribbon Fest was held in honor of Sherry York Kitts who lost her battle with cancer last year. The York County Cancer Association helps families by providing financial assistance for medications and other cancer-related needs so they are better able to fight the disease.

The CVoF and The Crew performed three songs: "On the Mountain" by Christa Wells, with CVoF soloists Jennifer Barnes, Dwayne Ingram, and Lydia Mims; "Holy is the Lord God Almighty" by Christabel Corazza, with solos by Genelle Billings and Christabel Corazza; and the gospel flavor of the event, "Give Him Praise" by Lincoln Brewster, with solos by Dwayne Ingram and Phillip Harris.

Robert Morrison, worship leader for The Gathering FM Band, invited the audience to come close to the stage and worship with us as they closed our time with "Jesus, Messiah" by Chris Tomlin.

Everyone who attended the event was exposed to the power of the unity that exists in Christ. More than 10 churches within the community were represented among the FM Band, the CVoF and The Crew alone. The Church worshipped with one voice as they sang praises to Christ.

It was touching to see our artists rub shoulders with artists from the other bands and with the community. And to see them stand together for a cause that is important and personal to so many—demonstrating that Jesus cares about people who are suffering.

A huge thank you to all of the vocalists and musicians who volunteered their time on Saturday to impact our community!
