Troccoli expressed her delight at having been considered to perform at the monumental event and promised that the worship evening would minister to everyone in attendance.

“As a minister, my role is ensuring that everyone gets to experience God intimately in spite the diversity and varying needs of the congregation. That’s the call upon my life and by the grace of God, I have been able to touch many lives ushering them into the bottomless love of God,” she said.
