It is with great joy that we announce Musicfest 2008 for R.I.S.E.
was a Success!!
As in each Musicfest in the past we emphasize that this is an
outreach ministry that is a blessing to be a part of, and that
we try very hard to keep Christ at center stage from beginning
to end. In the course of the event we have three desires
we pray will be fulfilled:
1. That you will be
blessed by the festivities
2. That R.I.S.E. will be blessed by our helping hand
3. Ultimately, that God will be glorified through it all.
Thank you so very much for making Praisathon Musicfest
2008 a Success!!
The Praisathon
admission ticket allows the concert-goer to come and go all day long.
Many first time patrons intend to come for an hour or two, but end up
staying all day. No one working on (or performing in) Praisathon gets paid - making the event a one hundred percent labor of love.
The variety of music at
Praisathon
includes: Blue Grass, Southern Gospel, Classical, American Folk,
Christian Rock, Contemporary Praise and Worship, Barbershop and
Sweet Adeline's four part harmony, with performers from right
here in Steuben County and some from as far away as New York.
A Moment for America
Every year at Praisathon we take time to honor our great
country's men and women in uniform, our veterans, and above all,
those who've given their lives in the pursuit of
protecting our freedoms. Though we take just a short time
for this, it is something we take very serious. For a
young person to put on this country's uniform and be willing to
go wherever called and be willing to lay down their own life to
protect the peace and freedom of many is the most honorable,
glorious, and yet terrible calling that one could ever pledge.
We love them. We pray for them. We thank God for them.
We love our country and though we are very young compared to
most of the world, the loss of life in protecting it has been
immeasurable. Let us never take our freedoms, our
democracy, or the cost to insure them for granted!
