True Worship Retreat Partners with ERA and Verizon How Sweet The Sound
Pay-Per-View Worship Experience Options Announced
New York, New York September 2, 2010 – For over 8 years the True Worship Retreat has brought worshippers together from all over the world to invoke a breath-taking worship experience. That alone has caused the retreat to be one of the most highly anticipated annual events in the Gospel music industry. The retreat, which is taking place at the Shiloh Baptist Church, 515-521 West Fourth Street, in Plainfield, NJ on September 9-11, 2010, offers a three-day experience full of worship and education along with networking opportunities for attendees seeking to be in the music business.
This year, the True Worship Retreat will launch on September 9th with a class sponsored by ERA entitled “Saving the Dream of Home Ownership”. The class begins at 6:30pm and is free to the public. “The premise of this class is to empower and educate current and potential homeowners,” states Lance Williams, founder of True Worship Retreat. The class will focus on foreclosures, buying and selling, short sales, purchasing a second home and mortgage advice/guidance. An ERA representative will provide one on one consultation for individuals who have questions.
Immediately following will be the general service at 7:30pm, with Gospel favorites, Tye Tribbett and Dr. John Guns along with the True Worship Retreat Mass Choir. This is the only nightly service that is free and open to the public.
On Friday, September 10th, the True Worship Retreat is producing two concerts simultaneously. The “Women in Gospel,” concert will feature Gospel greats Dorinda Clark-Cole, Martha Munizzi, Sheri Jones-Moffett and Kathy Taylor. In addition, the “Next Generation” concert will feature Kierra “Kiki” Sheard, JJ Hairston and Youthful Praise, Twyse, Jonathan Nelson, Mali Music, Jules Bartholomew and Juda Camp and many more. Tickets for both concerts are available online at www.trueworship.org.
To further educate attendees, Verizon How Sweet The Sound is sponsoring the True Worship Retreat Industry Panel. This education driven component of the retreat is open to the public and will take place on Saturday, September 11, 2010 at 11:15am. All artist, singers, musicians and indie labels are encouraged to attend. The panel will be moderated by Quwania J., President of TSF Marketing & Media, and will include the following speakers: Richard Picart, Chief Operating Officer of Gospelcity.com, Brown, Music Director at WLIB and WBLS, Jojo Pada, Owner of Ignition PR, Sam Williams, President of NGE Consulting and Khalif Townes, President of Urban Roundup Group, LLC .
All artists and musicians are encouraged to bring their demos to give to the panel members. Producers, managers, singers and others in the music industry are encouraged to bring their business cards.
The retreat will conclude on Sept. 11th with an awe-inspiring worship service with Bishop Liston Page as the guest speaker.
