4tified is teaming up with the “Anointed Voices of Ford Temple”, “Heritage Fellowship Church Choir”, “Heavenly Praise Team”, and featured soloist Deaconess Juanita Williams for an evening of Gospel Explosion on Aug 7th at 7pm.  Escape the heat of the summer by coming inside of the beautiful Franklin Parks Performing Arts Center for an evening you will not forget.  You can guarantee there will be enough energy to keep the place rocking all evening.  Check out all the details here and please get your tickets soon as seating is limited.   We hope to see everyone there! (Special note: Chris Geiger will be singing tenor and this will probably be the only appearance of 4tified in 2010 while we continue our search for a new tenor) 

We had an awesome time performing at the Carver center.  The crowd was excellent and some of us got to see some old friends we had not seen in a very long time.  This will be our last concert of the season.  We hope everyone has a great winter and we’ll see you in the spring!

We recently got the chance to put on a concert for our home church.  The Lord provided a picture perfect day for the church fall festival and we were able to hold the concert out on the back lawn of the church.  It is always special to play in front of friends and the crowd was indeed very encouraging.

After a little vacation break for some of us, we held a Sunday evening concert at Harmony United Methodist in Hamilton, VA.  The people there were very warm and welcoming and it was an encouraging evening for us.

Also, we have just posted a photo album from the CD Release Concert here.  Enjoy!

We had another packed weekend following up to our CD Release concert last weekend.  We were in Winchester at Bethel Lutheran on Saturday to help promote a fundraiser for the Youth of that church.   The people there were great and the weather was picture perfect for an outside concert.

On Sunday we led the worship service at Loudoun Valley Church of the Nazarene in Hillsboro, VA.  This is Kendall’s home church and it was great to see all of our old friends (George & Lola, Kristi, Bob Nutzman, etc…) again.  The service went well and we especially enjoyed the communion story by the pastor.   

Wow, what an evening we all had for the CD Release concert.  The fans were such an encouragement and it was a blast for all of us in 4tified.  We also need to thank the Franklin Parks Arts Center for accommodating all our needs and to congratulate them on a great facility.

The concert was a sell-out and there were people standing in the back.  Brian Boswell (Pedal Steel) and Allen Stoudt (Harp) joined us for the evening and they really added an extra punch to the music - thanks guys! 

We hope everyone had as much fun as we did!

We had a great trip to Christiansburg, VA this weekend.  Pastor Bailey was a superb host and we had a very warm reception from the congregration there.  Several of us had some very interesting conversations with the folks after the service and some even promised to come back to hear us in Winchester on June 6th.

Four of us got to fly down and back in Steve’s Piper, which made the long trip a breeze - thanks Steve!  We all stayed at a Holiday Inn Express in Dublin and some of us slept great (though I heard there were some snoring choruses in other rooms - too bad  guys) 

All in all it was a very nice trip - though quite lengthy for the drivers.  Now, we are focused on finalizing the CD cover/insert, and getting it to duplication.  We are also putting together the program for the CD Release Concert at the end of May.  Hope everyone can come see us at the concert - get your tickets before they run out! 

We have scheduled our CD Release Concert for May 30th at Franklin Park Arts Center in Purcellville. We expect the tickets to go fast, so order yours soon!  Below are the details:

We were honored to be invited to a gospel concert at Mt Zion Baptist Church this past weekend.  So often, we are invited to an event to minister to a group, and then we end up being the ones who are ministered to.  God has his way in all that we do.

From the worship leader’s testimony to the other gospel band (Barbour Travelers) the evening was a real blessing to everyone.  We also stuck around for a light dinner afterward and enjoyed fellowshipping with the members of the St. Louis community.

A good time was had by all. 

On January 30th and 31st, 4tified led Praise & Worship and delivered a concert to the Christian Business Men’s Conference in Lansdown, VA.  Friday morning saw the band and some of the voices lead the opening Praise & Worship and then Saturday morning everyone was their to kick off the day with a full 4tified concert. 

We were very happy to be back with the CBMC guys again this year and they are always great to work with.
