Territorial Vocal Convocation

History in the making...the first ever USA Eastern Territory Vocal Convocation took place this weekend at beautiful Camp Ladore in the Eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware Division. Captain Len Ballentine was the guest and Territorial Music Secretary Ron Waiksnoris collaborated to design and deliver what is being reported as a great success.

Vocal musicians from all over the territory enjoyed a comprehensive learning experience and some corps songster brigades performed. The Territorial Staff Songsters were on duty as well. Singing is a great way to minister and worship. A good brigade will reach the souls of people of all walks and often the words and music stay with the hearer to the delight of God.

Romans 5:11 (MSG)
11 "Now that we have actually received this amazing friendship with God, we are no longer content to simply say it in plodding prose. We sing and shout our praises to God through Jesus, the Messiah!"

It was also our new Divisional Youth Chorus debut to the territory! I have never had soo much fun singing in my whole life. The weekend completely changed my views and thoughts about singing.
Our Corps Songsters sang the song Pslam 91 in loving memory of Normajean Honsburger. It was her favorite song and one of her favorite scripture verses.
