Sharnessa Shelton (left)
and Lucy Britten (right - in photos above and below)
are the two singer-dancer duo comprising the Christian pop band, V*Enna.
(It's pronounced "vee-enna" like the city, but there's no connection.) The
word itself means "white unto harvest," and we believe God is
going to use this group in a fresh way to draw many kids to
Jesus who would otherwise not hear His message of hope!
The main message ringing in the ears of unchurched kids today is
that of the pop stars who are drawing these kids only into
sexual immorality and the gospel of
"self."
Speaking
of "fresh," their sound is fresh, clear and
FUN! "Pure Pop" as it has been called. And I (Sharnessa's
mom)
agree! I LOVE to do my
aerobics to several of the songs that are on the CD, the cover of which is
shown below right. However, fear not, this music appeals to much more than
biased, 48-year-old moms (and dads)!
You might say it appeals most to early-to-mid teens, but then again, I don't know...
My mom, who's 72, loves their music! (not just her
granddaughter!) And so does my 33-year-old sister, Julie... And
so does
Joshua, their (darling, and I'm NOT biased)
7-year-old son, who told me: "I BEG my Mom to rewind it
over and over and over!!!" (He has since gotten his very own CD
player, so now he can play it all he wants!) He, his older
brother and their 4-year-old sister know all the words, which
means they don't just display the CD; they PLAY it ~
constantly. So it's really most accurate to just say this music is enjoyed by all
ages!
Here's the cover of the
CD which we now sell here at our website! Click here.
Or at our Catalog Main Page
you can click on any catalog page link that has a mini CD cover
(like the one to the right) next to it. (Clicking on the
CD cover right here will take you straight to the latest devotion at the
V*Enna website!)
If you'd like to hear the songs,
see photos,
find out V*Enna's U.S., Canadian, or U.K. tour schedule, and read devotionals
written by the girls, click here
(or on the banner at the top of the page) to
go to the official V*Enna website! (This will take you
away from
my website, so click your "BACK" button to return!)
I have to tell you... the devotionals are
excellent!!! Kids ~ of all ages ~ will be blessed by
reading them! (And if you're a parent, they'll bless you
too!) The girls' hearts ~ in their devotionals, at the
concerts, in the songs ~ are to draw you to God and into a
closer relationship with Him!
