Hey friends!
We are one day away from heading out onto the Sunlight Summer Tour! We’re packing the van and trailer tonight and then will be hitting sites across this fine country. We have the pleasure of playing some major music festivals along the way (Creation, Ichthus, AtlantaFest, etc…) It’s exciting and also a step of faith as some members are quitting their jobs or taking unpaid leave of absence from their “full time job” in hopes to make this musical career the “full time job.” Success isn’t based on numbers for us though; it is based on doing what God calls us to do and to walk through it in faith. We’re hoping to reach brand new audiences with our music and show and share what many of you already know.

REILLY - How to have fun in a field
P.S. Thanks for all who voted and are spreading the word on our MusikFest Competition… Yesterday you single handedly pushed us into the top 4 slots!

I’m sorry, but it’s just BEGGING for a caption…
‘Despite a lovely marriage, Dan STILL remains oblivious to Noele’s telekinesis powers when she takes the violin right out of his hands. Meanwhile, Matt and Jordan live out a lifelong dream of becoming cowboys on the open range, and John attempts to look as stoic as possible in a field with a bunch of goofballs.’
Have a great tour, maybe we’ll try to head to some of the PA ones if our summer doesn’t get too hectic, but it’d be great to see you guys. Have fun and stay cool!
Keep faith,
~Hannah
That’s an awesome pic! The sky looks amazing. Have fun on the tour.
