MEDIA ADVISORY, Mar. 11 /Christian Newswire/ -- Weather a Church has an established worship team or not, many ministries have discovered the benefits of inviting national touring Worship artists that come to the local church and serve through guest worship leading, special music and testimony.

Having someone come in from the "outside" as oppose to using local talent, helps to motivate ministry partners, it also allows for leaders to be on the receiving end which can be very good to renew a leader's perspective on ministry and it can serve to connect with different people or groups within the community.

Finding the right person to do the job can also be challenging as there are thousands of national artists to chose from. From big acts like Chris Tomlin, Jeremy Camp, or up and coming artists like Nashville's Ana Dara or Buffalo's Johnny Juarez. For instance it's easy to see why Johnny Juarez, and his energetic worship leading style and music has been a great fit with ministries that have an emphasis on contemporary and blended worship formats geared towards young families and their youth.

Born in Houston, Texas, Johnny Juarez spent most of his life living in one of the world's most multi-cultural cities: Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Already established in Canada, where he won a 2006 and a 2008 MAJA Award (honoring Gospel artists in Canada) for his strong pop-rock vocal abilities, Johnny Juarez now lives in nearby Hamburg, NY. His ministry-oriented concerts combine interactive fun and spiritual themes, with time devoted to his personal testimony of how Jesus restored his life and family.

After releasing two popular Spanish-language CDs in 2003 and 2005, Johnny Juarez released 2008's "Here I Go" CD. The album of ten pop-rock, English-language songs is set to take Johnny Juarez's passionate singing style to whole new audiences. "Here I Go" is gaining airplay on radio stations in Canada and the United States with the powerful title track, as well as stand-out tracks like "You Are There" and "Let Me Tell You."

You may think that booking an artist like Johnny Juarez might be complicated, however hundreds of pastors, worship and student ministry leaders have found it very easy to make this happen through the website www.johnnyjuarez.com or calling 716-400-9998. Regardless how big or small your event or church is, do take the time to look into this valuable resource that will refresh and encourage your local ministry.
