Louisiana Youth Convention Weekend!!!

WOW GUYS, WHAT A DAY!!! E.Ivey here, just giving you guys a brief update as we approach the end of a great day! Despite all of the series of challenges throughout the day, this event really turned out to be an awesome opportunity for God's Spirit to move! A HUGE thanks to all of the workers and staff at Glad Tidings Church for being so hospitable and FLEXIBLE!! There's not a noise ordinance in America that can keep us from shouting the name of Jesus from the rooftops! :-) Also a big shout out to Greg Pampell and Matt Woodward for all of your help and support! You guys are true servants with the heart of Christ, and for that, we are truly grateful! Love you guys! I got some great help from Greg's son, Nicholas, in setting up my drums and running lines! And turns out he's a pretty good drummer too!! LOL....

After that, we went through a bit of a relocation process due to certain circumstances beyond our control into the Youth facility. Which turned out to be not only a better venue, but an atmosphere more conducive for what God had originally planned all along....and that was VERTICAL WORSHIP!! God always sees the big picture, so what happened? Lo and behold, God placed right in front of an awesome youth group from Baton Rouge with one of the most sincere youth pastors you could ever ask for! Jordy was a blessing to be around and we look forward to seeing him again soon!















So we got a got a great sound check and from there it was business as usual...enlarging Heaven and plundering Hell!! We really entered into a place of relational intimacy that allowed us to take advantage of a powerful moment in the presence of God. It is during those moments, that for me personally, I kinda feel like David did in Psalm 8:3 when he said, "When I consider Your Heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place, what is man that You are mindful of him? The son of man that You care for him?" So powerful and majestic is the God we serve!


And finally, we finished the night off with some great food and fellowship at Tony's Pizza. And lemme just say it was AMAZING! So if you're ever in the Lake Charles, LA area, hit it up!





Well thats all from me for now! Thanks for tagging along for the ride with us....lots more to come from FIS in the near future....please continue to be in prayer about our new full length album, as we are endeavoring to record this month!! To God be the glory and may He give all the increase!! God bless you all!!
