First couple of days... "What day is it?"

In rehearsal camp we found that we all had a pretty similiar story that got us here and Jer. 29:11 became our tour theme verse... Rehearsal camp was crazy but the time had finally come for us to be on the road to our first stop. We drove from Ventura, CA to Montebello, CA where we had a very long set up but we kept our spirits up, laughed, and had a lot of fun. Our dress rehearsal went well and the church we were at was booked only two days before we got there and so there wasn't much hope for a big crowd for our first concert but we had 120 people come! The first concert was high energy and extremely fun!! From montebello we drove to Norwalk, Ca for the Alive In LA conference where we performed a half hour set and then drove to one our of tour member's (Katelyn Fox) home where her darling mother (THANKS RHONDA!!) set up housing for us. From Chino Hills, CA we got up for our first early call time of 8am and had our 5 hr drive to Phoenix, AZ where we performed an hour set at a soup kitchen in town. And we went for some ice cream after... they were good so we wanted to let them have a little something... they're a bit spoiled right now.. I know.. :) Mark Lyons (father of our tour member Sarah Lyons) set up the soup kitchen concert and housing for us so we wanted to THANK him for his hard work on this end! We're gearing up for a fun weekend, tomorrow we will be performing in an outdoor mall (THANKS MARK!) and then driving to housing later that day in Sierra Vista... and from there? Only God will tell.. and then He'll have a continental staff member put it on the website! :)

Pray requests:
OPEN DATES!!! (If you see on the website that we'll be in your area and you know a church.. Call them and call us.. We will go wherever God leads us! )

Health!!!! I've been hearing from the other tour that everyone is getting sick! We've been pretty good.. only one got a cold at rehearsal camp that we cut out fast and so far on the road we've only had one other get a fever but we seem to be back in top shape. Keep us in prayer for health we need everyone strong to keep our tour going as strong as it is!!

Attitudes: I've been blessed with such a great group of young adults and I haven't had any problems yet!! YAY!! So keep us in prayer because we know satan will be after us because we're so strong and pray that we stay united and high spirited with God's hand always on us keeping us going forward!

Safety: We'll have a few more long drives this week so keep us in your prayers that we will always arrive safely and securely with no lost young continentals ;) [just kidding on the lost young con part.. I like to joke, no really don't worry we have them count off everytime.. :)]

Thanks guys and check back soon for updates.. We'll try to keep up with it!! :)
