Google+ It seems major gospel music projects are always released sometimes during the Easter Holiday. Of-course its a victorious day for all Christians all over the globe. Christ did us proud, so its our turn to do Him proud too. Now,  Just after  informing you about South Africa's Joyous Celebration launch date of their 19th DVD and Cd to be in April 2015, Another Big Gospel group Ambassadors Of Christ Choir (AOCC) from Rwanda has announced a similar date as the official moment that they will be releasing their 11th DVD. Sharing through their Official Facebook Page, the group has also said to be ready to begin their 12th DVD project very soon and asked for prayers. Here is a snip of the post from their Facebook page.

South Africa's giant gospel music group Joyous Celebration has released one official video before the official launch of their 19th Album cd and dvd that has been scheduled to take place on Easter holiday this year. The Song Kuregerera in Advance by Zamar TakeSure from Zimbabwe had leaked into Youtube through unofficial ways and that could be one of the reasons the group has decided to release an official version of the same through their vevo certified  account. JC has for the first time included lyrical translations in their video music (though it's not done in the entire video)   and that will be a big plus for the fans who do not understand Shona (a Zimbabwean language).

They have been referred to as a Gospel group or Gospel Choir.They prefer to be referred to as a Gospel Project or a Gospel Concept. The reason being that, is because the crew changes at least every two years. The concept is basically created in such a way that performers are selected through an intense auditioning process, after which they attend music workshops. During these workshops they learn skills such as songwriting to performance. We then rehearse a repertoire for about two months. After that the crew is on the road for the whole year. Performers always sign a 1 year contract to be in the Project, although there will be some performers that will be with Joyous celebration for more than a year. FOUNDERS  1.
