GRAMMY award-winning American gospel singer CeCe Winans spiritually lifted thousands on Thursday night as she spoke about the power of praise and the mercy of God in navigating life.

Winans, who is currently on her More Than This world tour, took to the stage at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain on the night before the African Emancipation Day holiday, singing songs of worship that transformed the venue into a grand church. The “congregation” lifted their hands, danced, and sang along in reverence.
