Veteran gospel artiste Diana Hopeson has counselled young female artists at the Dinner Night with the Legends not to lose hope if they are unable to get more shows when they get to the veteran stage.
The former MUSIGA President urged young female artists to stay true to their call no matter what the circumstance might be in their music journey.
According to Diana, as an artist grows old, she might not get the opportunity to grace stages as it was in the person’s heydays.
“I want to encourage the young ones coming that this is the beginning since you have the energy. As you go forward, this your passion will never leave you because the gift has been given to you,” she noted.
Mrs. Hopeson told the young female acts to rather give glory to God since there are different seasons in the life of every person.
“Don’t be discouraged if you get to our stage and you’re not being called often to minister on notable platforms. It doesn’t mean your career has ended but it means you’re a special vessel that is used when the biggest guest comes so don’t feel down spirited. There are seasons in our work so in every season, let’s give glory to God,” Diana Hopeson advised young female artistes.
Some of the gospel female acts such as Ruth Adjei, Ayana and Selassie also dined and ministered with the gospel female legends on the same stage.
It was a satisfying night for the young artistes as they were advised to allow the Holy Spirit to take centre stage of their gospel ministry.
The 2020 edition of the Women In Worship event witnessed eleven (11) legends on stage ministering back to back hit songs inspired by the Holy Spirit.
The list included Bernice Offei, Abaawa Connie, Rev Esther Nyamekye, Helena Rhabbles, Amy Newman, Stella Aba Seal, Hannah Marfo, Mary Ghansah, Diana Hopeson, Tiwaa of Yaw Sarpong fame, and the evergreen duo Tagoe Sisters
