If you attended the concert on November 21, 2009 – you saw history being made as Toronto Mass Choir and Newworldson (http://www.newworldson.com) took the stage together. After their collaboration on Newworldson’s newest album, TMC was thrilled to sing on tracks “There Is A Way” and the Jamaican medley.
“There Is A Way” reached #2 on the Billboard charts in February, and it’s still holding at #3: http://www.billboard.com/#/charts/christian-songs.
We are so honoured to be joining Newworldson again in a concert on Sunday, May 2 at 7:30 pm in Niagara-on-the-Lake at the Orchard Park Bible Church. Tickets are $20 with proceeds to Grace Children’s Hospital in Port au Prince.  For 50 years Caribbean offshore workers have provided a dependable source of labour to farms in Niagara. We believe they should be recognized for their valuable contribution to not only our farms and businesses but deep rooted friendships in our churches and neighbourhoods.  Our annual Worker Welcome night is one way we as a community we would like to say thank you!
These are challenging times for everyone in the agricultural community, especially our farmers who are facing increasing threats due to globalization and lack of support from Canadian consumers. The decline of the family farm not only threatens food sources for future Canadians but the very survival of many communities in the Caribbean.
May the spirit behind the music encourage us to grow together in understanding and faith!
