Prior to this announcement, a few weeks ago Touch held his second annual Replenishment Concert at SuperSport Park in Centurion.
Themed ‘Embracing Faith, Unity, and Divine Inspiration,’ the event had the express aim of propelling South African gospel artists and providing them with a platform to ignite hope and inspire positive change.

Following the success of the event, Touch took to Instagram to share his gratitude at the support he received.
“We know the God we serve is able and willing. From the bottom of my heart, I want to say thank you for making the time to witness the 2nd edition of @replenishmentconcert,” he posted.
He went on to share that he believes that God is pouring in each and every single one of his supporters and that he looked forward to seeing his fans supporting him again in 2024.
