In sports, a Most Valuable Player (MVP) award is an honor typically bestowed upon the best performing player or players on a specific team, in an entire league, or for a particular contest or series of contests.   In sharing that acronym, we must ask ourselves, what attributes do we share with God’s most valuable player, Jesus Christ?  Also, are we following the instructions that Jesus gave to His disciples?  When answering that question, my heart is filled with joy.  The Grant Memorial AME Church Melodious Voices of Praise Choir exemplifies what a young Christian youth should be.  You spread the Gospel by reaching out to the people around you and bring them to church with you. You encourage one another when needed.   You set a good example for the youth of the church.  You give up party time to praise God. You help feed the hungry and clothe the naked with mission projects.  You tutor and mentor those younger than you. You attend and participate in worship service on a regular basis. Most importantly, you love one another. In this game of life we must strive to be His most God's valuable player and I have to say that you are well on your way.  You have not arrived at this point by happenstance for you have been chosen to do the work of the Master.  May God continue to bless and keep you.  It is my hope that you will be nourished and encouraged by the experience of being a part of God's choir.  Thank you to all who have given their time and talent to ensure the success of this youth choir.
