1 Camp Down, 7 To Go! - Post #2

Howdy everyone! This past week has been a great way to start the summer off. We played at the Arizona High School camp and they seemed to have such a blast! We played crazy games, hung out late, kicked it at the snack shack, and worshiped a lot. It was so rad to watch kids transform in the ways that they did. From the first day, where they were still trying to figure us out to the last night where they were shouting SUPER loud for Jesus. It was a cool moment. Here are some pictures of our week!

Heading to Prescott, AZ.

Radiance - Post #1

Currently, I'm sitting in a Crown Plaza hotel near downtown Phoenix, AZ enjoying a break from the heat in this refeshing air conditioned room. For those who don't know... this summer, I am traveling with a worship band from Point Loma Nazarene University playing at camps and churches throughout California, Arizona, and New Mexico for about 10 weeks. The group is composed of: Rachel Pomeroy (Bass), Victoria Watts (Electric), Chris Evens (Electric), Kelsy Richardson (Vocals/Keys), Todd Clayton (Sound Tech), Katie Bunker (Vocals/Percussion), Aaron Villegas (Drums), and Allison Waters (Media Tech). We left Loma today and couldn't been anymore ready to start this journey together.

Highlights of the Beginnings:



-Reuniting with people I am starting to call family


-Falling asleep to the waves again


-Getting stoked to worship with this group of people


-Taking our first excursion ... to Hemet. Even though it's Hemet, nothing beats the first road trip


-Leading worship for some of my most respected mentors who reflect Christ to me

-"Working" from 7am-9pm everyday... yet loving it.


-Running/Sitting/Thinking on Sunset Cliffs as the sun takes another dip and the sky becomes dark again




-Late night burrito runs!
