"RELIGION"

The centennial salute was noted throughout September and culminated with events Sept. 28-30th 2012. It was a reflection of achievements and a ministry as PRBC went outside of the church walls, combining the monthly soup kitchen with a spoken word event, "Rock the Mic." Local Christian poets (Melanie Bostick , TruPoetry), hip-hop artists (Yung Titan, Glory BOI) comedians and singers gathered outside to minister to the community. - Written by Tri-State Defender Newsroom

Built into Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church's celebration of its 100 anniversary was the honoring of trailblazers, service to the community and look into the future.

Bio

Since childhood, the spoken word artist affectionately known as “Tru” has always had a fascination with writing music and poetry. Her awakening came as a student at Rust College working as a radio announcer for WURC. That experience helped to cultivate her gift while inspiring, encouraging and uplifting others through her spoken words. Consequently, in benefit of the local food bank charity, TruPoetry gives an annual poetry slam contest to unite poets and encourage the community to donate to those who are underprivileged.
Her debut spoken word album entitled “TruPoetry” received national recognition when the CD was nominated for a Stellar Award in 2011.
TruPoetry’s new release entitled “We Need to Talk” is produced by Gospel Jazz Artist Kevin Griffin. This CD has the meditative hymn “Have Thine Own Way” featuring Derrick Jackson & Richard Smallwood’s “His Mercy Endureth Forever” merged with a poetic piece that revives, incites the worship of God and gives hope.

The original material included in this poet’s collection will not leave you disappointed but definitely asking for an encore.
