SCC Concert!

Last night me and mom went to a Steven Curtis Chapman with the Mestases. We volunteered with "Shaohanna's Hope" - an organization that the Chapmans started to care for the orphans. We were "bucket people" we stood in the lobby/theater before the concert/intermission collecting money for "Change for the Orphan". Change for the orphan is a project that at each concert goers can give their loose change to a family living in that area that's adopting. Last night we raised $3,000, some organization matched up to $2,000, so all together the family received $4,000! It's really cool to see what God can do!

It was a really fun night. Since we were volunteers we didn't have to pay to watch the concert. We could sit where ever there was an empty seat. Well it just so happened that there was a whole front row empty! :-) Also after the concert the Mestases had back stage passes, so we were able to go with them back stage and meet Steven Curtis Chapman! It's always nice to know the right people:-) lol

So all together was were able to get a free tshirt, front row seats, back stage passes, and be a part of helping a child in need of a family:-)


Josiah, Keren, and Keziah :-)







Being computer challenged I couldn't figure out how to flip it. sorry:-(
