In the vibrant tapestry of our spiritual community, Music and Drama Night stands as a beacon of creativity, unity, and inspiration. As we anticipate another enchanting evening filled with melodies, harmonies, and compelling performances, it’s time to delve into the origins and preparations behind this cherished event. In an exclusive interview with the directors of three prominent groups—Evergreen Choir, Gospel Dynamics, and GHAMSU Praise and Adoration—we uncover the heartfelt stories and diligent efforts that have shaped Music and Drama Night into the uplifting experience it has become. Join us as we journey behind the curtains and explore the dedication, passion, and anticipation that infuse this remarkable celebration of faith and artistic expression.
FROM GOPSEL DYNAMICS MUSIC DIRECTOR
I’d first of all thank you so much for this opportunity. So M&D stands for Music and Drama Night although it’s unfortunate we don’t add the ‘N’. Music and Drama Night is a biennial program organized by GHAMSU UCC Local through the four ministering wings; GHAMSU Praise and Adoration (GPA), GHAMSU Choir, Wesleyan Theatre (WT), and Gospel Dynamics (GD).
For the past years, the program has been organised in two consecutive times, or editions, the first and second of which happened in 2017 and 2019, respectively. God being so good, the Third Edition is happening in 2024 and is dated on the 16th of March, 2024.
Personally, as the current Music Director of Gospel Dynamics, it is my very first time to experience the program, and that speaks volumes about how we will have to prepare ourselves for it. Rehearsals have prevailed so seriously that all is set and poised for the program. We organized rehearsals and meetings in addition to the already existing meeting days we had. All to see to it that we put in our very best for the glory of God.
FROM GHAMSU CHOIR DIRECTOR
There was a time where Ghamsu had only two slots for a program within the academic year because the chaplaincy wanted to organize a crusade and didn’t want denominations organizing programs at the time.
GHAMSU decided to have manifestation, and then the four ministering wings also decided to come together and organize one big program, which is Music and Drama Night. Meaning MnD is Jubilate Deo, Dypraise, and Passion Night all together.
The GHAMSU Choir UCC Local is very much prepared to minister powerful songs and soul inspiring music. We want to offer our fragrance of worship to God and everyone should expect nothing but soothing melodies from the choir and more.
I believe that our Ministrations will cause a change in the lives of people who will be present.
FROM GHAMSU PRAISE AND ADORATION DIRECTOR
So Music and Drama Night is a program that is hosted to unify the 4 ministering wings in GHAMSU and also to win souls to God. The programme is very mega and powerful because it’s a four-in-one program. GPA is ready for the angelic move of God on Saturday, God willing and and everyone should expect an ordinary ministration but also be prepared for an angelic ministration.
