Most of all, I would like to thank Misty Mills and Pastor Burgess for creating Vibrant Praise. Many participants have come and gone, but the seven that are currently in the group are the result of much time and commitment on the part of both these faithful individuals.
Although Vibrant Praise sings in church, this past year we have been able to go beyond the church and minister to people on the streets and in parades.
One of the most memorable events for me came around the Christmas Season of 2010. We were involved in a tractor parade in downtown Centralia and afterwards we caroled for the store owners and any customers inside those stores. On one of our last stops our group met the coordinator of the parade and sang for her and her friends. Little did we know that her day had gone horrible, and as we sang Carol of The Bells tears filled her eyes and she couldn’t stop thanking us. I am thankful that through the talents God has given me He can use me to minister to people outside the church. |
