"Reaching Out"
A benefit concert and auction for
The University of Oregon Gospel Singers

"Reaching Out"will help raise necessary funds for the University of Oregon Gospel Singers, two time National Champion Gospel Choir, as they travel to China this spring in an unprecedented cultural exchange. In March, the group will sing on the Great Wall of China and other venues to share the gift of uplifting spiritual music to a country where hope is scarce for many. All funds raised at the concert will help cover the costs of international airfare, Chinese student visas, bilingual tour guides, and other fees not covered by the University of Oregon. The group must raise $25,000 before their trip in March 2013.
The Concert will be held at Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church in Beaverton, OR as part of the church's mission to reach out to the community and bless others.
Reservations must be made ahead of time, due to limited space.
MORE INFO ABOUT THE GROUP:
Taking this gospel music to China will be an unprecedented cultural exchange as the people of China are not accustomed to gospel music (sacred music indigenous to the U.S.)." Andiel Brown, a former Duck football player and alumni of the School of Music and Dance, is their esteemed and fearless director. The group will be singing at the Great Wall of China, two universities, and a professional performance hall. "We have the opportunity to do something even greater, something more profound than ever before."
