Rock for Haiti concert
Some of our young people were moved by the pictures coming out of Haiti and came up with the idea of forming a band and having a concert.
They got together, rehearsed some songs, produced publicity material, and put on a fantastic concert that was greatly appreciated by all those in attendance.
The event was well supported by those who came; tickets, refreshments, and donations. And also members of the church who donated money for the cause.
The total raised from the event was £330.15. This money will be added to the donations received from the church family and forwarded to Compassion.
We chose Compassion, out of the many requests for assistance, because our youth-group and some members from church already support children through Compassion, with two of the supported children from Haiti itself.
Thank-you to Ross, Will, Alex, James, Bekah, Ria, and Kirsty for your great playing and singing.
To Henry and John for sound equipment.
Also Sam and Rob for running the desk.
And to Sheena, Pete, and Gill for sales and refreshments.
You all did a fantastic job.
