Grand Canyon University's Critical Mass Shines at National Jubilee in D.C.
Grand Canyon University’s Critical Mass recently took part in a major national event in Washington, D.C. The ensemble performed at Rededicate 250: A National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise and Thanksgiving, marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Their appearance highlighted the university’s Christian mission through music and worship.
The event brought together national leaders, pastors, and public servants for a day of reflection and celebration. Speakers included Sen. Tim Scott, Dr. Ben Carson, and Rep. Mike Johnson. Alongside them, artists like Laura Osnes, Chris Tomlin, and the United States Navy Band delivered performances.
Critical Mass, led by GCU Worship Arts Director Moises Felipe and alumnus Andy Frank, opened the event with a set of hymns. Their repertoire included *Go Down Moses*, *Where Could I Go?*, and *I Shall Not Be Moved*. The group performed three times during the afternoon, reinforcing the event’s themes of praise and thanksgiving. Before their final performance, the ensemble spent around 40 minutes rehearsing with Christian artist Blessing Offor. They later joined him on stage as background vocalists, blending their voices with his music.
The jubilee celebrated faith, history, and national unity through worship and speeches. Critical Mass played a key role, embodying GCU’s Christian values while contributing to the event’s message. Their performances, alongside other artists and leaders, marked a significant moment in the yearlong anniversary celebrations.
