Great Weekend

We had a great couple of gigs this weekend. Saturday, we had the pleasure of leading worship and giving a concert for the youth from Capital Church of the Nazarene. The group was on a weekend retreat to Camp Covenant in Bald Knob, KY. They were a great group of kids. I'm kind of partial - that's my parents' home church. Howard Wilson is helping lead that church in a great direction, and he knows that building a solid youth program is a fundamental element to a healthy church. (Sorry Howard - God hasn't lead me away from Crestwood yet!) Josh broke a string, shortly after saying he never breaks strings. Ha! Bert wasn't able to join us. Derek & Kelly were on fire, despite not even being able to see their instruments! "Billy Graham" is our closest attempt at being a jam band with the introductions and extended solos. It's becoming a crowd favorite. Sunday, we played at Pleasureville United Methodist. A bit of an older crowd (compared to the youth group from Saturday night), but they seemed to like us. No broken strings for Josh this time. Bert decided to show up for this gig (I'm kidding, Bert!). A couple of new songs, "Learning More Everyday," and "Wrap Me In Your Cross" are starting to develop nicely. "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" is also becoming a favorite of the band. Look for other members of the band to start posting on the blog soon - including devotionals from Josh. Take care and God bless! - Andrew
