Coming Soon, Darin Atwater & Soulful Symphony On Saturday, March 30th, at 6:00 p.m., New Shiloh’s “VISION ALL IN” Capital Campaign Steering Committee will present the one and only Darin Atwater and Soulful Symphony at the Murphy Fine Arts Center, on the campus of Morgan State University. This concert is a benefit for the renovation project. We cannot begin to convey our enthusiasm in being able to bring Darin back to Morgan and the city of Baltimore. Many, of course, know that he is a protégé of the late Dr. Nathan M. Carter, whose bronze bust is displayed in the atrium of the center. Darin will be joined by 24 singers and a 64-piece orchestra, making for a truly exciting, fulfilling, and uplifting evening. Tickets will be available via Ticketmaster, MSU’s box office and New Shiloh Baptist Church.
Jimmy shares his testimony with New Shiloh
The last week of renovation was Thanksgiving Day week, and the sound and light workers from AE Global Media were busy putting finishing touches on theatrical lighting and testing the sound system. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving Day, Pastor Carter received a call from Donnie Haulk, the boss from AE, about one of his workers. “Pastor,” said Donnie, “I know you think I’m calling about another issue relating to completing the church’s project, but here’s why I’m really calling. I want to know, what have you done to Patrick?” “Huh,” Pastor replied, Isn’t today his last day? He told me that he would be leaving and returning to Charlotte.” “That’s correct,” said Donnie, “but he just called me and said that he wants to stay, along with Ken (another AE worker) through Thanksgiving Day and be on-hand Sunday for the church’s first service, back in the sanctuary.” “Pastor, this is not like Patrick. You see, Patrick is one of our nation’s top riggers. He was the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey’s Circus’ top man until they closed the circus down. I was able to hire him for AE. What you don’t know is that he’s anti-church. Whatever’s going on there, keep doing it." ◆◆◆ Photo credits: David Johnson (cover) and Lee Anthony Gibbs
