So usually it isn't that hard for me to do another blog. But how much I know the KFCD's blog meant to a lot of people. It was a very well written piece....and since I am no journalist to me I have a lot of personal attachment to some thing like that...So I wanted to let as many people experience as possible. But I think pretty much a month later it is time to put some thing else up.
At the fest Mercy Me was one of the Key note performers for the day. They did some amazing songs, and I really like Mercy me, but I am not a super fan. I didn't have any of their Cd's I didn't even know the band member's names. But I do know I can only imagine, hold fast, so long self. Prob. 3 of their biggest hits. So when it came time for them Me and 4 teens (Sarah Schlosser, Taylor Mattingtly D-wal (Dan Wallace), and Nick Carson) and 1 recent graduate (Megan Schlosser) went down to the Most Pit. I mean “Most Pit” in the smallest sense of the word...basically it is just a bunch of people standing by the stage. Mercy Me had a very awesome Set. They did a lot of awesome songs of course the hits, but some new stuff and some covers like Won't back down by Tom Petty and the Heart Breakers. Which is one of my fav. Songs but I never saw it as a song that you could make a Christian song. It was awesome. A video of them doing the song is posted at the bottom. Bart the lead singer also did a talk about how we are loved, no matter what is going on in our world. We have a God that loves us. Midst the Tragedy like what has happened to our economic situation as a Country, The 30 some troops that died, what happened in London just yesterday and today and all of those who died in Copley this past weekend. We have a God that sees past our imperfections and loves us. He created us in his image. But we still need to change, and though we talk about it as Christians all the time. How we need to take action and make a revolution. But it is just words...I want to challenge you all my readers...how ever many I have. I want you to do some thing nice for some one everyday and spread the love. Lets start a revolution. Pray for some one for a week, listen to your parents, make some one laugh, give some thing back to your community. Something, lets inspire the upcoming generations. Teach them how to act so we don't have a bunch of MTV cutouts that think it is ok to get pregnant at 15, or act like some one on Jersey Shore. Lets show them the way Christ wants us to love. Fr. Joe said some thing profound to me at our Catechists meeting yesterday. We are all on the same team, we are all fighting the same fight. No matter if you teacher pre school, or Life Teen. We are fighting against MTV, Justin Beiber, Grand theft auto, World of War Craft, Little Wayne and Beer (I LOL'd at that one). So lets fight the good fight against these things, and instil the positive values of Catholic Christian life. go to Mr. Lovewell.com...and sign up join the movement :)
