Walk 4 Water
Water … where do you get yours?
Your kitchen sink? From your fridge? Bet you don’t walk 2 miles to get it!
Many of our neighbors around the world walk that long and farther to get any water they can, never mind clean water! Join us for an experience of a lifetime! Carry water as our friends in Africa and around the world do … one step at a time.
• Walk, jog, sprint …any way you want … one mile to the water hole
• Fill your container with water
• Feel the weight! Carry the water 1 mile back to our village destination at SoulFest
Find out more at thesoulfest.com/walk4water
Register for the walk, tell your friends and family what you are doing, ask them to support you, and you could win an iPod Touch, a 2010 4-day pass to SoulFest, and more!
You, taking action, can create change! The funds raised will be donated to Child Voice International (CVI), a SoulFest ministry partner. CVI will be using the funds to benefit the village in Lukodi, Uganda, Africa. Visit them while you are at SoulFest.

Natalie Grant Named Female Vocalist of the Year
NASHVILLE, Tenn.— Curb recording artist Natalie Grant was named Female Vocalist of the Year for the fourth consecutive time during the 40th Annual GMA Dove Awards. Grant now joins Sandi Patty as the only other artist to have received the prestigious honor four or more consecutive years.
In addition to her win, Grant performed “Make It Matter,” from her 2008 best-selling recording, Relentless, along with Group 1 Crew, during the live broadcast of the 40th Annual GMA Dove Awards on Gospel Music Channel.
The ceremony capped a GMA Music Week that saw other high-profile appearances for Grant, including a celebration honoring the RIAA Gold certification of her 2005 breakthrough, Awaken. In addition, Grant co-hosted the BMI Songwriter Showcase with singer /songwriter Matthew West, where she performed her Song of the Year-nominated hit single, “I Will Not Be Moved.”
Last year Grant was both the most-played female artist at Christian radio and the top-selling Adult Contemporary female solo artist in Christian music. One of the genre’s biggest names, Grant is among a select number of artists to have also achieved a formidable foothold at mainstream media and radio. In addition to her music, she is an outspoken advocate for victims of international human trafficking. The Home Foundation, which Grant created in 2005, has raised over a quarter of a million dollars to fight the trafficking of women and children for the purpose of sexual exploitation.
