Hey friends and family! It's been a very fun past few days - we had a small slew of nights without concerts in the San Francisco Bay Area of California, so we were able to do some sightseeing in SF (Golden Gate Bridge/Fisherman's Wharf/Pier 39) and go ride some rides at the Santa Cruz beach boardwalk! It was great weather - one of our tour member's family let us use their jet skis too, so we spent half a day at Anderson Lake in San Jose jet skiing and relaxing. Unfortunately, that also meant that half of our tour got sunburned and are now basking in globs of aloe vera. :)
We are preparing for the big 40th anniversary celebration in Yorba Linda, CA! That also means that the tour is also preparing for our final nights together. Last night, I finally deemed it worthy that we learn the 'Family song' for our praise and worship time together. It's going to be hard to part from each other, but we all know that it's coming, so we are getting ourselves ready for that.
Thank you for our faithful readers. We really appreciate your support and prayers!
Love, Tif

It's been a while...
Hello! So I do apologize that it's been so long since I've updated this blog. Tour 4 has gone clear across the country from Nebraska to Oregon all in the span of one week! Needless to say, there have been some long drives and pretty early call times in the morning.
Yesterday, we had the privilege of performing in the small town of Prescott, Washington in an outdoor park venue. This was the first time anyone has ever came to this town, and we really saw the Lord working in the community. Almost the entire population of that town showed up (about 300 people!) and we could really feel the Lord's presence. And the energy that the crowd gave the kids - it was incredible!
We have been challenging the YCs everyday with some hard-hitting Scripture from the book of James:
"Do not merely listen ot the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it - he will be blessed in what he does."- James 1:22-25
It has been my privilege to see the Lord working in the lives of these young teenagers. I see them daily putting the word of God into practice, which encourages me and my leadership team so much. It gives us the strength and hope to continue in what we do. Praise Jesus!
