We bring that fire to help your business go to the next level
September 26, 2015 was a day of excitement for the city of Winston-Salem at the BB&T Ballpark, the home of Winston-Salem Dash Baseball team. It was the city's first time having the greatest gospel festival in the Southeast which was Co-headlined by Kirk Franklin and Mercy Me. Yes, there was rain consistently but the fans came out in support of this amazing event. Upon entrance into the field I was greeted with a warm welcome from the workers at the Winston-Salem Dash Ballpark. I received a media tag which allowed access to the entire ballpark. As I began to socialize with those that where vending at the event, I learned about some interesting businesses; some in the Triad area and some not. One business that caught my attention was the Scripture Tags business(pictures below). Scripture Tags is such wonderful business and the owners were extremely nice and gave me great information about their business. Scripture Tags is a business that travels to different events world wide to sell jewelry and other unique items homemade and the business specializes in employing disabled adults. I thought that was great, they give disabled individuals the opportunity to work as a outlet to be more independent. For more information on Scripture Tags you can visit www.scripturetags.com. As I continued to mingle at the event waiting for Kirk Franklin to perform; I ran across another interesting vendor who was selling a book titled A Daily Companion To My Utmost For His Highest. The book is written by Jed and Cecilie Macosko and Jed briefly described the book as a book that Helps individuals better digest Oswald Chambers’ hard hitting truths, this supplement to his devotional masterpiece, My Utmost for His Highest, presents a practical examination of each reading. You’ll find a short summary of the day’s topic, background, and Scripture context, and reflection questions. A Daily Companion to My Utmost for His Highest is perfect for new users, longtime fans, and small groups. You can find this great read on www.dhp.org/macosko for $15.99 and below are pictures of the other three books you can get to go along with the book. Now lets get to the best part of the Awakening Festival which is the performance by Kirk Franklin. OMG!!!! he truly surprised me with a lavish/rock/praise and worship performance. What a true performer Kirk Franklin is. It was pouring down raining and this man came out with a boom. You had to be there to feel the energy and see the power Kirk Franklin exhibited at the Winston-Salem Dash baseball field. He saw that the crowd was drained from the rain and cold and needed life and gave us just that. Kirk Franklin literally ran out to the middle of the field in the cold rain and got the crowd on their feet moving back and forth to every single song performed and I'm talking all 75 mins. This man did not hesitate to make everyone that was there feel like it was most definitely worth coming out in the cold and rain to see him perform. I would recommend Kirk Franklin concerts to anyone that asked. In-spite of the rain and cold I was super excited about The Awakening Festival. From my understanding The president of the BB&T Ballpark is looking to have the event every year around the same time. I have marked my calendar for next year to make sure I am in the building front and center with hopes of next time being able to catch a live short interview with Kirk Franklin and his amazing background singers. (below is a little clip from the show). ENJOY!!!! |
