The first time Whitney’s solo voice was heard in public was, naturally, at the New Hope Baptist Church. At the age of about 11 she sang “Guide Me”, and the reaction she received taught her something she would never forget. “I was aware of people staring at me. No one moved. They seemed almost in trance. I just stared at the clock in the center of the church. When I finished, everyone clapped and started crying.” The first time Whitney’s solo voice was heard in public was, naturally, at the New Hope Baptist Church.
