With our annual
Fundraising Banquet coming up on April 19th, things are very busy at
Sav-A-Life. We are bathing the entire event—and all preparations for it—in
prayer. Our prayer coordinator, GiniBeth, is organizing 40 Days of Prayer in the
days leading up to the Banquet. This will begin March 11th and we will
be posting each day’s request on Facebook for those who wish to partner with us
in prayer over the work God will be doing.
Rebecca St.
James will be the featured speaker of the evening. She is a talented
singer/songwriter who has graced the contemporary Christian music scene. We are
very much looking forward to hearing about her passion for purity and the
sanctity of human life through musical expression.
“At the age
of 12—a time when most young girls are just beginning idyllic dreams of ‘what I
want to be’—a young Australian girl prayed a simple prayer. ‘God, I give you
my gifts. Use my life to make a difference and change the world.’
Rebecca St. James
has since taken an unparalleled course in Christian music. As the
industry’s innovative ‘new voice’ as a teen in the mid-90’s, she blazed a trail
in the contemporary Christian genre for many other talented female artists to
come.”
“Australian born Rebecca St. James is both a Grammy Award winner and multiple Dove Award recipient, who can count her
lead acting role in the film Sarah’s Choice, among her most
recent career highlights. With international success that has driven her record
sales into the multi-millions globally, she has been tireless on the concert/
live performance front since breaking as a major
artist in the Christian music industry while still in her teens. Rebecca was
in 2008 for the 7th consecutive
year named "Favorite Female
Artist" in Contemporary Christian Music by readers of CCM Magazine for the 7th year
in a row.”
“A gifted songwriter,
St. James’ signature blend of modern pop/rock sensibilities and lyrics of unwavering
devotion have blazed the way to seventeen Top
10 singles--nine of which have reached the #1 spot on the charts to date” (Jackie
Monaghan). In
addition to being a best selling author, advocate for Compassion International,
and acting in several national film productions as well as Sarah’s choice,
Rebecca has become a national media
voice for ‘life,’ displaying her multi-faceted career. She held a lead role
in the very recently released film “The Frontier Boys,” and her newest album, I Will
Praise You is now available in stores and online and may be previewed on
her website: http://rsjames.com/
With versatile talent Rebecca St. James has been able to
reach different kinds of audiences across the world. As a professing believer
and supporter of pro-life ministries she is able to share the gospel with those
around her by the way she lives her life and her unabashed confession of faith
in a world that rejects the value God places on life.
Rebecca is passionate about youth-related ministries,
especially those focused on young women’s purity. She shares some about the
issue in this video:
After advocating for abstinence and purity before marriage, and
as a now recently married woman, Rebecca is able to describe the ways in which
the Lord blesses your marriage when you are faithful to wait. Watch this video:
Rebecca St. James’ message coupled with the love and care
that go into each step of planning for the event will make for an inventive,
beautiful evening in which we will have the opportunity to see God’s grace in
action.
