June brings along perfect weather for outdoor events. This time of year our schedule becomes filled with wonderful events in the great outdoors. To us, there's nothing more enjoyable than musical worship in the outdoors with a crowd of fellow believers. Soulstock 2005 was a HUGE success. We thank all of you who came out. It's probably the largest events at which we have had the privilege to perform. There was over 16,000 people at the event before it was all over. Our friends, Justin and Cari from WDJC 93.7FM in Birmingham, made the trip and took the stage to plug their station and to introduce us. They are such cool people and have an awesome radio show. It was also nice to meet the guys from Big Daddy Weave, Jeff Deyo, and the Apologetix. From the minute we arrived, we knew that God's hand was on the event. The entire staff was completely 100% committed to ensuring that Soulstock was centered on Christ and His ministry. With that type of focus, they can't avoid being successful. It was an incredible day of fun, worship, and ministry and before night was over, we witnessed a field of thousands on their knees in prayer an worship. Absolutely amazing!! We also have to send a big thanks to WFIX FM in Florence and Decatur, Alabama. They took a lot of time during Soulstock to interview us on the air and let us talk about our ministry. Being an Independent band, we consider every friend that we make in the radio industry a blessing. There's a complete Soulstock report along with photos in our online journal. You can read it here. UPCOMING EVENTS
The next night, Saturday, June 4th, we'll take it all on the road to Springville, Alabama where we will perform at Faith Fest. This is the first of what's hoped to be an annual event. The city's Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring this event. We've invited artist Jamey Hamm, the Truth Force Power and Strength Team, to participate in the event along with us. The event will also feature artist Kevin Moore and the Bradford Road Worship Team. The concert is a free event and will be held at the Springville High School football stadium. This will give us an opportunity to see how powerful our sound system really is. The event starts at 6pm and we will take the stage at 8pm. We pray that there's a big turnout. It's going to be a very powerful event with a very powerful message.
Finally on June 25th, we get the privilege to return to Athens, Alabama. We made many new friends there from Soulstock and other events the past few years. Several churches are coming together for a youth camp. We'll get to close out their camp with a concert at Lindsay Lane Baptist Church. It should be a blast and we look forward to seeing our friends in Athens again. It's a busy month for us. God has blessed us with some great opportunities and we plan to serve Him to the best of our ability. COMPLETE SCHEDULE June 3, 2005
