About the Project
United Voices: Because He Lives is a special Easter worship collaboration hosted by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This project brings together a select group of talented Christian singers from the Australia/Pacific region to record and film a professional worship music video celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
This initiative is designed to foster interfaith and intercultural collaboration, allowing singers from diverse Christian traditions to unite their voices in worship and praise.
