About Hope For Harvest

Catherine’s mother, Pastor Barbara Brewton, founded Community Outreach Christian Ministries in Charlotte, North Carolina, and through that ministry she helped feed more than 100,000 families. After her mother passed in 2007, Catherine founded Hope For Harvest to carry that work forward, keep The Harvest Center going, and give young people a safe place to learn, grow and feel supported.

The brunch brought in support for that mission. Catherine is also Vice President, Creative at BMI in Atlanta, where she has championed songwriters for decades, and her community came out strong for the cause.

The Brunch

The SoulFull Sunday Gospel Brunch took place Sunday, March 15, 2026, in Atlanta, hosted by Jason Lee. Supporters filled the room, including Kirk Franklin, Tyler Perry and T.I., all there to stand with Catherine and the foundation. Kirk led the room in worship, and before it was over he had Tyler Perry singing right alongside him.

Watch Kirk Franklin call Tyler Perry up to sing “Something About the Name Jesus”:

Then the two of them kept it going with “Silver & Gold”:
