3,600 miles of travel today. We woke up this morning had breakfast in Gander, NL.... lead worship at YC and then got on three flights back to Houston. We just had dinner at Pappasito's with our families. (If you haven't had their fajita's please come to Texas for them.. it's worth the trip!) It was a wonderful weekend in the beautiful island of Newfoundland. It's the province where Irish, French, and British descentdants have morphed together to make real treasure of a place. Everyone was so kind and hospitable to us. We can't wait to back. And appartentley they taught pirates how to to talk really cool the way Jack Sparrow does.
It all made for a wonderful weekend at YC 2008. The kids in the crowd were amazing and sought after God with us. God's presence was so evident and the worship was so pure and genuine. We loved it!
Some random travel pictures from our journey to Newfoundland...

Also... Marcus went hunting and they got a Moose! Look how big this things is! All that meat should feed some people for a long time. Sorry... we're typical Texans.

Did Marcus shoot it from a helicopter?
I've been to Gander many times. Nice people up there.
They're lucky they got to hear your awesome music!
That poor moose! He looks peaceful though, so at least he has that going for him ;).
Glad to hear God blessed your time in Newfoundland. It's neat you guys get to travel so much.
I pray God would bless your time at home with your families and give you rest!
God Bless,
Sarah
What a blessing you have to be able to travel the places in this big beautiful world that you've been. I just want to say THANK YOU for taking your fans along with you, and giving us this peek inside/outside your lives. Praying for you all, often. Please update us on progress of your mom and dad's church and the needs of your community.
Thanks,
Mona, the alto lady in the soulfest choir.

But walking around with a toothpick? in your mouth can be dangerous... haha
God bless you guys.
Those look like good times.My family decent is from Canada(I am French and get made fun of for it)Anyways that moose would make my youth leader jealous.Every time he has been hunting he comes back with nothing but a story saying how close he was.
Don't matter where you may be, God will always be with you. :D love you! ;*
Thanks for the map that showed us where you guys were...I love maps! :) It's from homeschooling my kids... :)
Wow breakfast in Newfoundland and dinner in TX! :)
Glad you guys got back home safely.
How did the moose get to TX?? Do they freeze it and ship it??
Good goin' Marcus! :)
Take care guys!
Love,
Paula
you guys were amazing at YC, it was a lifechanging experience. I know you have no idea who I am but oh well. I love your CD Opposite Way. I find your music is able to do things that others can't, probably because it sounds like something I would want to listen to on some radio station on a non-christian like station, more modern, but with others you wouldn't, if that makes sense.It sends a message to me better anyway, not sure about other people. I hope we get to see you in concert again soon. I hope you guys really enjoyed Newfoundland, because it's no Texas for sure, there definetly isn't the same things here, especially Gander I found, being from St.Johns, can't imagine Texas. All though the stuff doesn't really matter. It's not like I went there for shopping, more for praising, worshipping, YC. I'm just going to stop, I don't want to make this way to long. because it's a comment, not a blog on what I think.
God bless you guys in everything you do!
Pappasito's is all right, but I like Pappadeaux better... :)
*GASP* Now Bambi's dad is gone too!
aww :( Poor moose!! I bet it will taste sooo goood! :)
Newfoundland.. sound like great fun! id like to be there right now, lol!
God bless you! love you all!
