A Soldiers Journey to The Woodlands




This weekend we had the opportunity to perform at Fellowship of the Woodlands. I want to go on record saying that is the nicest church that we have ever seen. We performed once on Saturday and multiple times on Sunday. We hopped in the Tank and made the 54 mile journey on Saturday. We were blown away by the facility; we performed in the “junior” high room which wasn’t very junior. It reminded me of AMC 30. It took the kids a little while to warm up to us but once they did it was great. Tre9, Von Won, and Colcuts were all with us and did their thing. We were missing one of our soldiers because he was celebrating his first wedding, we definitely missed him but we still held it down.




:::::YAWN::::: well we had to be back in the morning for 845am. Just imagine what time we had to get up to make that 54 mile tour of duty. We had a lot more fun on Sunday!!!! The special guest speaker for both days was the 1 man volley-ball team, Bob Holmes . This gentleman travels around the world playing teams in volley-ball by himself ! (we could have beat him) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9avdCs-snM. His record is like 16425-325. It is crazy how he is able to beat a team of 10 or sometimes they have 20+ out there BY HIMSELF! After freezing it was early and the crowd was still sleepy so SOM (minus 1) and Gifted woke them up. This was now our second time so people are opening up a little more. We bounced back and forth from the “junior” high room to the high-school room. The crowd received us really well. At one point when it was quiet I could hear my daughter calling my name “Daddy”. The whole purpose of the shows was to promote Reality Weekend (Feb 5-8). By the time the day was over all of us had lost our voices, but it was definitely worth it. The Lord moved in that place and a lot of people lives were changed. We are thankful for the opportunity and cant wait until we go back. Once I get all this pics posting thing figure out I will post them.
