Choir Tour....Day One

Hey friends....

Choir Tour 2010...Day One....Success! What a great first day of Tour '10 as we were sent off from FBC Benton with so much support from family and friends! Our trip to Marion was smooth as our bus drivers, Robert and Louis, are taking good care of us. This is their 4th and 3rd tours, respectively, to drive us on. They are great!

FBC Marion is a growing church which has a strong emphasis in music and missions, especially with children and youth. It was a joy to have the opportunity to worship with them. Their worship pastor, Lee Barnett, and student pastor, Michael Lusk, were great to work with and made us feel right at home. After a light dinner together we geared up in our concert uniforms and prepared our hearts for worship. The students did an INCREDIBLE job! You could sense God's presence in a powerful way. "Shut de Door" was a crowd favorite as well as the last song of the evening, "Thou Oh Lord". After our time of worship together we had the opportunity to share some fellowship time with the students of FBC Marion in their gym and over some pizza!

We had a great nights sleep tonight and are ready to hit the road to St. Louis this morning. Tonight we will be singing at a retirement village in St. Charles, MO. Be praying for God to continue to reveal Himself to us as we seek Him. Pray specifically for conversations that our adult volunteers have as we seek to encourage students in their faith journey! Thanks for supporting, loving, and praying for Pure Energy during Choir Tour 2010.

The concert was awesome! It was my first time to hear it all.. start to finish. I closed my eyes and soaked it in... thinking about the words to songs. I really wished it could just not end. That is what I think worship will be like in heaven. We won't get tired or distracted.. just enjoying the fellowship with The Father and using words that are "beyond words" to describe our love and appreciation for HIM! I am inviting everyone I see for HOMECOMING CONCERT!!!!!!
