Psallo: Anthem of praise

Описание: With grace from the Lord, we are remembering 10 years of “The Emphatic Praise Explosion” inception.
In October 2007 “The Emphatic Praise Explosion” was created, based upon a question by a young woman. The question that was posed, “Why they don’t have big concerts anymore?”. It was also expressed that she remembered, “when they used to get singing groups from all around.” The young man that was listening expressed that, “that’s a good idea”. “We’re gonna do it!”. But he also expressed that he didn’t know singing groups like that and that they should wait until Thanksgiving Day to speak with the deacon of Metropolitan church of Christ. On Thanksgiving Day 2007, the idea was expressed to the deacon and his wife. The deacon gave a name of a songster that could possibly help. The songster was contacted on Thanksgiving Day of 2007. The idea of a singing event that would last for three days was expressed and he said that, “he would think about it”. After months of contacts, interactions, dialogue and working on a maxi CD with the songster, a phone call was made by the songster in October 2008. The songster expressed how he wanted another CD created and he was ready to listen to “that thang you’ve been telling him about”. A meeting at Krispy Kreme donuts transpired in November of 2008. The songster expressed how he wanted to create a CD entitled “Spiritual Expressions”. Once the CD discussion was over, the unveiling of the name, “The Emphatic Praise Explosion” was introduced. It was also restated that the event would be three days, because everyone else were doing concerts that lasted one or two days. The songster gave phone numbers of individuals and groups in which to call as gratitude for the creation of his CD. The songster also expressed that the event should end on Sunday, as appose to beginning on Thursday. Shortly after, a date was decided upon. The work by the young man ensued with the designing of fliers, a commemorative booklet, securing song groups and preachers through phone calls, creating mailers, securing radio ads, creating promotional videos, developing web campaigns, email blast, budget management, obtaining finances and payments (via his own credit card), so that the event might be established. The young woman who originally expressed the question, she secured catering and refreshments, floral arrangements and decorations so that the event might have a jubilant feeling. The songster also suggested bringing a preacher and a sound engineer for the event. On February 6th, 7th and 8th of 2009 was the first event entitled, “The Emphatic Praise Explosion”. Footnote: Without Cypress church of Christ paying and making accommodations for the original events, there would have never been an event entitled “The Emphatic Praise Explosion”. May you continue to emphatically praise the Lord and glorify His name. Please enjoy the videos. Amen!
