Proclaim Gives Concerts in Barbados

Canadian University College's touring/recruitment gospel quartet, Proclaim, recently spent 10 days in Barbados.  During that time they performed at 6 schools and 13 churches, sharing Jesus Christ with and introducing CUC to more than 5000 people.  The group travelled to Barbados at the invitation of Weekend Radio, a self-supporting ministry run by young adults.

Weekend Radio team that hosted their recent  visit to Barbados.

In addition to performances at schools and churches, Proclaim also participated in three radio and TV interviews.  Another highlight of their visit was a concert they gave for the Father's Day Gospel Brunch at the Crane Hotel, one of the island's finer establishments.

While most Canadians would welcome a trip to Barbados during the winter, Barbados during the summer was extremely hot and humid, said Bernice Leavitt, Proclaim's audio engineer.  Barbados, an island only 34 km long and 23 km wide is home to more than 25,000 Adventists and 52 SDA churches.

The team met one young lady who with her mother had been praying about where she should attend college as a pre-med major.  When she learned what a high percentage of CUC students are admitted to medical school her response was, "I think God just told us which school He wants me to attend!"
