Senior Pastor Harold Cole opened the concert in prayer and scripture, while Rev. Jonathan Cole was the emcee. The Revival Centre’s musical director, James Cole, helped organize the event.
The group heard from Kent Carter, the African Children’s Choir Trio from Moncton, Jim, Sharon and Carolyn, John 3:16, Project Isiah, Guy and the Melody Mean, the Rivival Centre adult and junior choirs, Darlene Strong and a group from Highland AME and Christian Goodine.
