John Tesh.... ALIVE...COMING SOON!

January 30th, 2008

So many times we miss the talent and opportunity that stands right in front of us.

I'll never forget the day I dropped my daughter off at dance class…and lingered for just a few extra moments. What I saw made my jaw drop. 7, 8, and 9 year old kids. 13 and 14 year olds dancing with joy like I had never seen.

Since our very first PBS special, Live at Red Rocks. The live HD video of ballet, hip hop, band, orchestra and choir all coming together on stage will take your breath away.

I remember the first time I saw “Fame” on the big screen and wanted so much to be the piano player in that performing arts high school. There’s a lot of innocence of that movie in these dance pieces. I invite you to experience just a taste of JOHN TESH ALIVE music&dance. Our mission with “Alive” was to show what can happen when kids find their passion. Every night on the news we are bombarded with stories of drugs, childhood obesity, teenage gang violence, and kids who are hooked on video games. Connect to a healthy passion and your face looks like this!

Integrity had the honor of working with John Tesh and this amazing crew & staff on the Alive project recorded in Arvada, CO last August. "This is an amazing show!, It's like nothing I have ever done or seen before. When I saw the dvd for the first time I had goose bumps. This show is so energetic, fun and touching!" says Integrity's CEO & President Steve Nance, who is John Tesh's Production Manager & Lighting Director.

Getting Closer?

January 30th, 2008

We are getting really close to wrapping up the new building. We have some gear in the new shop and are starting to layout things. The Power company should be out anytime to hook up power! After that we have 1 more final inspection and should be in by the end of February.

Integrity....Lighting for McDonald's Tour

January 28th, 2008

To celebrate the rich tradition of African American music that uplifts and inspires, McDonald's will kick off its Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour in February. Back by popular demand, the gospel tour will serve up a series of unprecedented, free gospel concerts to churches, b ringing a powerful and inspirational message to eight cities during Black History Month. The McDonald's Inspiration Celebration concerts feature Grammy-award winning gospel recording artist Smokie Norful headlining the tour for the second year in a row, joined by fellow EMI Gospel recording artist Myron Butler & Levi. The tour will visit the following cities:

February 7 - Philadelphia , PA ( Enon Tabernacle Baptist Church )

February 8 - Detroit , MI (Greater Grace Baptist Church )

February 9 - Chicago , IL ( Christ Universal Temple )

February 14 - Dallas , TX (Friendship West Baptist)

February 15 - Houston , TX ( Windsor Village United Methodist)

February 27 - Atlanta , GA (New Birth Church )

February 28 - Creedmoor , NC ( Christian Faith Center )

February 29 - Fort Washington , MD (Ebenezer AME)

“I am humbled and inspired by my continued relationship with McDonald's through their community outreach programs,” says Smokie Norful. “It's important that we continue to give back and that we realize giving back is the true way to keep ourselves and others feeling positive, uplifted, empowered, and encouraged.”  

In most cities, concerts will include performances by local gospel groups to showcase community talent. In addition to the gospel tour, several McDonald's franchisees have developed their gospel celebrations. In Atlanta , McDonald's sponsors “The Gift” Gospel talent search, a gospel singing and instrumental competition that targets Atlanta area youth, ages 6-12. And the McDonald's Gospelfest in New York City celebrates 25 years this year.

“McDonald's is pleased to present this Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour, featuring music that will lift spirits and inspire us all,” said Carol Sagers, Director of U.S. Marketing, McDonald's USA . “While this musical celebration occurs at mega churches during Black History Month, McDonald's recognizes and celebrates African American culture, heritage and achievements all year long – 365Black®! McDonald's is proud to be deeply rooted in the African American community.”
