With groups like Passion For Christ professing the gospel of Jesus Christ;
God's ability shows forth inside and outside of the church. Heads always turn when people see how young, excited, and
determined this group is, when the opportunity presents another time to win souls over for the Lord. PFC's music is
bold and original, exemplifying special gifts that can only be given from God. If you wonder what motivates them, be
sure to listen for the goodness of Jesus Christ expressed through the songs that they sing, sermons that are preached, which
unmistakably interprets how unashamed they are to be completely sold out for Christ. With songs that captivate the mind,
through Mime Dancers (Taken By Force), Christian Rappers (Faith Walkerz) and musical expressions that warm the soul, the world
will have no choice, but to take off the boundaries that they have set around the body of Christ.
Birthed out of the very heart of
God’s bosom, True Worship began through the eyes of musician and founder Minister Terrance Thomas, and co-founder Mrs.
Shalonda Thomas, back in January 2007, in the city of Augusta, Ga. where they currently live. Minister Terrance is not a singer
that happens to preach, but a preacher called by God who is gifted to sing. Through God’s grace and much prayer, the
dreams of a young church boy would soon come to pass.
PFC Ministries has traveled and
performed all over the state of Georgia, including parts of South Carolina. They have also performed on the same programs
with recording artist such as: Dorothy Norwood, William Murphy Jr. and Marquis Belcher and Divine Purpose. Minister Terrance
received an Outstanding Music Award, and
Passion For Christ has appeared
on TV 35 the summer of 2007 in Dublin, Ga. Minister Terrance Thomas serves as
the Minister of Music at Hale St. Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor James Kendrick Sr.
PFC has been on a mission to save
the unsaved, and to share the gospel wherever it is needed through the gifts of music ministry. They have been included in countless youth revivals, youth conferences, and anniversaries. Reaching young, urban
audiences is a key component of PFC vision, and the ministry mission statement reflects PFC commitment, “Meeting the
Needs for Today for Our Tomorrow”. Minister Terrance wants to take lessons as well as his own experiences
as a man who grew up with one foot in the church and one foot in the streets, and use that to connect with a generation that’s
not really listening to Gospel music anymore.
As time passed, the membership of
the ministry fluctuated, yet PFC spirit remained the same. The group is comprised of 6 altos: Nina Scott Sims, Shalonda Thomas,
Sylvia Bland, Jocelyn Phillips, April Smith, Crystal Carswell…7 tenors Keith Mercer, Terez Abraham, Janie, Michael Brunson,
Scotty Flowers, Dwayne Green, and Johnny…6 sopranos, Asya Stephens, Retrenda Miniweather, Angel Woods, Sonya Mercer,
Jennifer, Iradell Miller. Mime dancers “Taken By Force” Constance Molly Bland, JaQuana
Abraham, Jennifer Abraham, Terez Abraham, and Tyree Abraham, and 2 Christian rappers “Faith Walkerz”
Terrell Lynn, and Jantz Thomas. The musicians include the talents of musical director Minister Terrance Thomas, with the awesome
beats of Eric Phillips on drums.
Passion For Christ Ministry has
also came in contact with many of God’s people who is constantly in prayer for the ministry, and are covenant partners;
Denise Mosley, Kevin Hunter, Kiombi Griffin, Ebony Mercer, Marsha Mercer, Janiqua Roberson, Mandrel Carter, Janis Burge, Antwon
Lloyd, New Direction church family, and Victorious Life Ministry.
With much fasting and prayer for
the ministry God seem to show Himself in the lives of PFC. On April 28th, 2007 Kairos Entertainment was birthed,
under the partnership of Minister Dahl Moss of Faith Temple Faith Precious Ministries; Eastman, Ga. Minister Marquise Belcher
of Agape Covenant Worship Center; Forsythe, Ga., and Minister Terrance Thomas of Hale St. Baptist Church; Augusta, Ga. Together
they will proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ through music.
In closing we are firm believers
that what comes from the heart reaches the heart. We pray that the anointing will permeate (to enter and spread through) though
our lives and bless (not impress) all that watch, and listen. Entertainment is not our goal, but God be pleased, and someone
who hears experience Jesus in a greater way. What makes our ministry so wonderful because it’s Less of us and more of
God’s will and our passion for ministry is our divine purpose that overcomes our midnight!
