     Welcome to Shekinah's 31st annual Festival! The Festival is Shekinah Christian School's main fundraising event that helps to keep tuition at an affordable cost. Constituents have enjoyed years of interacting with the community and working together towards a common goal. We appreciate the many people who are assigned to festival committees who are non-constituents (approximately 30%), plus the many others who volunteer many hours of their time. The school would like to thank all extended family, friends and the community for your involvement and support in helping us make the Shekinah Festival successful. We look forward to seeing you there!

           Jonny Diaz   

  When Jonny Diaz headed off to Florida State University on a baseball scholarship in the fall of

2002, he was prepared to focus his time and efforts

on his athletic skills.  However, God had other

plans and He began to work in Jonny's life that led

him to put down his bat and glove and instead, pick up his guitar.  With God opening the doors, Jonny

embarked on an exciting new adventure.  Since

then, his tremendous songwriting talents, his vocal

and guitar playing skills, and his ability to connect

with his audiences, have sparked a grassroots buzz

that has taken his music nationwide. 

     Jonny has had the opportunity to open in concert for some of Christian music's

biggest acts (Mercy Me, Stephen Curtis Chapman, etc.).  he has also performed at

some of the largest Christian music festivals in the country (Atlanta Fest, Alive and

more).  Although he primarily travels as an acoustic act, Jonny has an amazing group

of musicians who join him for full band shows.  It has been an incredible ride so far for this talented and young singer/songwriter.  He is ready for what lies ahead as God

orchestrates the journey of Jonny Diaz.

     Mr. Jim Converse of Plain City,

Ohio has again carved a very

realistic pair of Blue Birds for the

Shekinah Festival Auction. 

     The Blue Birds are life size with the female perched on

the axe head and the male perched on the axe handle.

The axe head rests in a stump. 

     This one of a kind piece is carved entirely by

 Mr. Converse and stands approximately 20" tall.
