WHY GNC?


Good News Choir breaks a record of receiving a big number of members from abroad especially from the neighboring countries Burundi and Kenya. From its beginning GNC has never been a one nationality choir instead it has been a multinational choir with different people from various angles of the world but since 2009 a huge number of Burundians who are actively into Catholic Church they used serve from GNC, and in recent months GNC started receiving participants from Kenya most of them are here for a short period mostly 2 months, this brought up a discussion of why do all those people choose GNC? In his weekly speech President Astaire states that “Though our choir celebrate an English mass but it normally sings in 9 languages which enables many Christians from any country to feel comfortable with us for musically they can communicate with us” He continued saying that GNC a place where music fills the air, a place that is warm, not only in climate, but in atmosphere. a place where language poses no boundaries, a place where people of different cultures and countries come together to share the common language of song.

Last week, we received a couple of 4 new part time members from Kenya and Tanzania they all loved the mood our choir has, organization, how people are motivated, a so welcoming culture and the prayer of every Tuesday. Henry Commissioner in charge of social affairs says that the welcoming culture and happy mood is a legacy that every Good News generation has to keep for it is what makes us one in our Lord Jesus Christ. Remember Commission of Social Affairs is among the seven commissions plus the organization committee that make up the extended committee.
