“Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful” Hebrews 10:23 NIV
UMass Brothers and Sisters in Christ (B.A.S.I.C) and the Gospel Choir are a campus ministry, run by students who have a zeal and passion to spread the good news to other students on our campus, and that has served the UMass campus as well as neighboring campuses. We hold bi- weekly Sunday services, weekly Bible studies, prayer meetings, and choir practices as well as a variety of other social events.
One of our most significant means of propagating the gospel to all people, ranging from our campus to neighboring towns like Springfield all the way to Boston is through our Annual Gospel Concert. Our concert aims at creating a platform for everyone to come and have a taste of Christ, whether Christian or not, through the power of music. Usually at our concert we feature renowned gospel artists to create an uncommon opportunity for these students and attendees to meet artists of such caliber for free.
It will take place on Saturday, April 28 at 6:30 PM in the Campus Center Auditorium at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. This night, all members of UMass community and the surrounding areas are welcome to come experience God’s liberty [2 Corinthians 3:17]
This year, for our Annual Gospel Concert, we are featuring a great worshipper, an international sensation, and many performers from all over our community and beyond. To raise funds to sponsor the artist(s) for this concert, we are asking donors like you to help support our crowdfunding campaign.
It is our earnest prayer that God touches your heart to donate to this worthy cause knowing that whatever you do with Jesus Christ is not in vain.
