We have to thank God for his lovely birthday because even on his birthday we reap the benefits of it all. let's have fun while we praise God everyone!!" The pastor said to everyone.
Everyone clapped and raised their hand in praise. " tonight for the special event. We have some lovely girls from the orphanage singing in a choir tonight for all of you. They practiced very hard for four weeks straight. Everyone put You're hands together for them! Hallelujah everybody!"
The pastor said clapping.
Everyone clapped and the girls came out with the mics in their hand.
They started singing hallelujah.
Tori was in the front of the girls, as she was the main singer.
She sung her heart out for everyone and the other girls backed her up.
While salem played the piano.

Once the song was done everyone clapped very loudly inside the church.
"Thank you lord!! And thank you girls for this wonderful gospel tonight. I hope everyone's having a good night so far, the women will come around with the basket for donation money, you don't have to but if you are able to, please go ahead and donate." the pastor said.
The women went around and took money from people.
The girls walked down from the stage to drink some water.
There was food being shared around to everyone, while everyone spoke to one another.
" those girls were so lovely I can tell how hard they practice they all have beautiful voices, especially the main girl, I'd love to hear her sing
again in church." One of the lady's said.
"I know right! What wonderful children, praising the name of god!" The other lady responded.
"Thank you!" A man had said, collecting the food, which was being shared out to everyone.
There were also drinks too.
Everyone ate while the pastor prayed and sung for the people.
The pastor grabbed the plates of food and handed it out to the girls. "Girls if you want something to drink you can check the ice pitcher."
"Thank you sir." The girls responded.
" I think we did great out there you guys everyone seems to love us they are still talking about us." Dina said smiling happily.
"I know right? It was so fun!" Salem said smiling.
"Tori what about you? What do you think?" One of the girls asked.
Tori ate her food quietly and looked at them. She was thinking about if sister Anna liked the performance from up above.
" oh, sorry guys, I was just enjoying the food sister Marie and the other nuns worked so hard preparing it. I think we should give them some praise too."
" yeah I agree. This food is delicious but you were super good out there. Do you have any plans? For the future? you should really become a singer." Salem suggested.
" well, sister Anna helped me get a position in the choir. So after you guys go back to the orphanage, I'll be staying here in the convent and I'll be singing for the other church events and for the regular church days as well..for now. Later on maybe I can start writing and singing my own music who knows?" Tori told them.
" wow that's really sweet of sister Anna I hope I can find my place like you did sometime but for now I'll be spending time with the other girls in the orphanage when we go back. Although that's not so bad I love living in the orphanage with the other girls it's fun, but I'm really happy for you Tori you're getting everything you deserve." Salem replied.
"Thanks Salem. I wish that for the rest of everyone here as well."
" well, we're all happy for you Tori. As for me I don't care where I go. As long as I'm with Salem she's my best friend and I wouldn't wanna go anywhere without her." Dina said smiling.
"Same Dina same." Salem replied.
Sister Marie walked up to the girls smiling happily.
" you girls rocked it out there tonight I loved your performance and Esther couldn't be here to say she loved your performance but I called her and I told her all about your performance and I told her you guys did not disappoint and I sent her a video of your performance and she loved it!!" Sister Marie told them.
"That's amazing!!" The girls replied.
"Well we had a great teacher and a great support system." Tori said smiling.
"Aww thanks girls." Sister Marie told them as she hugged them in a group.
Everyone smiled at each other.
It was a good night indeed.
