CALL+RESPONSE is a first of its kind feature documentary film that reveals the world's 27 million dirtiest secrets: there are more slaves today than ever before in human history. CALL+RESPONSE goes deep undercover where slavery is thriving from the child brothels of Cambodia to the slave brick kilns of rural India to reveal that in 2009, Slave Traders made more money than Google, Nike and Starbucks combined.
Music is part of the movement against human slavery. Dr. Cornel West connects the music of the American slave fields to the popular music we listen to today, and offers this connection as a rallying cry for the modern abolitionist movement currently brewing.

On Monday, September 20th we will have the privilege of worshiping with The Glorious Unseen at Tehillah Monday!! Their band is made up of lead vocalist Ben Crist, guitarist Ryan Stubbs, bassist Ben Harms, drummer Jon Todryk and pianist Patrick Copeland. Recently they have written a new collection of authentic reflections on the ups and downs of the Christian life. “I have to sing what’s honest to me,” Ben shares. “And that’s exactly how I write the lyrics. I’m not trying to write corporate worship songs—just my honest thoughts to God, and somehow when that comes out, it’s worship.

First Assembly Watoto is excited to bring the Restore Tour to Calgary. The team is made up of former child soldiers along with children that have been affected by the war in Northern Uganda. For 20 years the Lord's Resistance Army waged a ruthless civil war against the people of Gulu District. Their tactics were particularly brutal as they abducted and used children to enhance the strength of their army and continually brought terror to these communities by mutilating and killing men, women and children. The war is now over and there is a desire in Gulu to change a story of despair to a legacy of hope, healing and restoration. Join with the children as they share their incredible stories of healing, forgiveness, and transformation. It is a free concert, with a love offering taken.
