First Friday is a secular event that draws a good number of folks to downtown Binghamton. In that secular setting we will provide, in the form of a musical out reach, an attraction that will bring in young people to hear the WORD of GOD. In American culture it seems that all forms of media, education, and government are sending messages that oppose the WORD of GOD. Music is one of the most powerful forms of communication and one that is very important to young people. If we present music that is in a genre that young people will stop and listen, we can deliver to them content that will offer the truth and the way, that will bring them better living, everlasting life, and a life that will please GOD.

"We Will Bring The WORD of GOD To Young People In A Form That They Will Listen and Hear IT."
