Drew Sheard: “We want a spiritual meeting. We want God to intervene, and we want unity, and we are praying for people sick to be healed, delivered. “We are praying that people will see God, that they will, through the messages that will be brought, through the songs that will be sung. And just through our actions. “We are praying that people will be touched in such a way that they’ll say, “I’d like to see more about that. I’d like to know more about that.” (Photo: Tyrone P.
