We had a special missionary opportunity in our area to have Glady’s Knight and her Saints Unified Choir come to Richmond.We had a special combined RS/Priesthood meeting to tell us about it. We were encouraged to reach out to our black friends, especially. We had to invite non-members to get tickets. I invited Barbara Tyler and Sylvia Elchinger, who accepted the invitation. I also invited Pam Plich ( a catholic friend) but she couldn’t come.
We went early to stand in line so we could get good seats. It was a fabulous concert with the most beautiful music and testimonies. Gladys was really funny and I got to high-five her as she came up the aisle. It was a wonderful opportunity. I am so happy I got to go.
In an effort to magnify her church calling as 'worldwide missionary', Gladys Knight-McDowell formed The Saints Unified Voices Choir in 2002. Not your typical LDS Choir, the group performs a mix of multicultural gospel songs that celebrate the Gospel of Jesus Christ and pay homage to the rich cultural diversity found within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. They are so thankful for the ability we have to share our testimonies of the Savior Jesus Christ, through the music of many cultures. We hope that this music will inspire you to follow the perfect example that Jesus set for us.Also, many thanks to the individuals and businesses that made it possible to share the Gospel in this unique way.
