What a night! 🎶 The Center for Rural Development would like to thank the Andrew Dodson Go Get ‘Em Foundation for hosting “A Somerset Gospel Homecoming.”

The theatre was packed for an incredible night of gospel music featuring Greater Vision, The Blackwood Brothers Quartet, The Go Get ‘EM Trio, and Matthew Fouch. What a wonderful celebration of gospel music and community! ❤️

Missed The Blackwood Brothers Quartet? You’re in luck! They’ll be back at The Center for Rural Development on Nov. 5 for another special concert performance.
