MORE NEW VISION CELEBRATING IN THE PHOTO GALLERY

Bethel A.M.E. Zion Church in Kingsport is celebrating the first place award won by the New Vision Youth this summer on a Caribbean Cruise to the Bahamas.

The New Vision Youth placed FIRST among twelve acts in all in competition aboard the Carvinal Cruise Lines ship "The Celebration," by performing "The Praise Dance." New Vision Youth received a standing ovation at the conclusion of the performance.

The cruise, from August 2nd to the 6th, from Jacksonville, Florida to Freeport, Bahamas and then on to Nassau, brought children from all over the United States, and the New Vision Youth tell me, their most exciting moment was doing the dance for the other kids. Xena Huff remembers going on a Banana Boat, swimming, sightseeing, and shopping. Others remember the two-headed sting ray and the hammerhead shark at the Bahamas Aquarium.

New Vision also sponsored two scholarships this summer.. on May 27th, one was presented to Beth Daniels of Central Baptist in Kingsport, and the other was presented to Jonathan Lollar Perry of the Great Commission Church.
