I am very happy for Pastor Shirley Caesar. To be in concert in the Park in London is another awsome step. Only God Himself can be guiding this woman, and she has to be totally committed and Resting in His Rest with the life style to follow. May God continue to Bless you Pastor Shirley Caesar is my prayer.
