The albums, titled 'Joy', 'It is Good', and 'Jesus' Name', were launched last weekend by the General Secretary of the Tanzania Central Government and Health Workers Union (TUGHE), Herry Mkunda.

Mkunda, who was the event's guest of honour, urged the group's singers to continue to do God's work through singing so that the message can reach more people and see to it they are saved.

"I congratulate The Friends of Jesus group for inviting me to be an official guest at this launch and I also ask you to maintain this unity to share the good news of God with more people,'' Mkunda pointed out.

He further asked the church members to support the group's work of preaching the word of God through songs so that it can achieve its intended goals.

The group's leader, Veronica Balula, said it was launched in 2012 but had failed to launch album due to various reasons.

"We had one album titled 'News of Hope', whose lyrics were only in audio, but in the end God has blessed us with three album's launch,'' Veronica revealed.

The leader said, the launch has inspired the group's singers to prepare more songs for God's work in various parts of the country through singing.

He said, the group needs 235m/- to buy various items including a car to facilitate transport to several areas in th country when the group is invited to sing in sermons.
