*IN AID OF THE OSU CHILDREN'S HOME*

Charity really begins at home and a group of Gospel music heavyweights have

joined forces to put up a show in support of the well known orphanage

center; Osu Children's Home in Accra; Ghana. The venue for this inspiring,

thoughtful and anointing occasion occurred at BBT, a very popular Ghanaian

church in New York which is gaining its notoriety for hosting Gospel shows

and online prayer sessions daily at dawn and dubbed; "The Jericho Hour".

The event featured some of the finest Ghana Gospel Musicians ever assembled;

Super Star Francis Agyei , the main artiste known for his non stop inspiring

and emotionally charged live performances, Minister Helena Rhabbles, "The

Godmother of Ghanaian Gospel Music" and New York's finest; Sylvia Asamoah, a

veteran Ghanaian gospel musician in the USA, Vivian Ofori also dubbed; The

future of the Ghanaian gospel music - Grace Dansowaa; the event show stopper

who started the show on a good foot, Rebecca Osei who changed the mood of

the event (she is known as the lady with anointing), Ben Obeng - great

singer with a dynamic voice also the future of Ghanaian Gospel Music,

Isabella Kyei and Anita Asumedu who gracefully led the worship.

Minister Rhabbles who helped with the fundraising, in her brief remark,

mentioned how years ago in Ghana she had adopted the Osu Children's Home as

it was her passion to make a difference. She would organize a show to raise

money for the orphanage during the festivities. When the organizers of the

event asked if she wanted to offer her support, she did not hesitate to be

part of it. At that moment, she had planned to attend to an event but she

had to reschedule.

When Gospel music heavyweight; Francis Agyei held the microphone and started

performing many rushed to the floor and danced. When it slowly turned to

worshipping, many were empowered by the Holy Spirit and so overwhelmed that

they had to lie on the floor. Truly , participants attested that they had

felt the presence of the Lord.

The success of the event could be measured by the inspirational performances

by all artistes involved and the collaboration of organizers in making this

a memorable occasion .

The artistes were also supported by experienced instrumentalists and the

BBT Choir.
