Life in The Family International

Joni writes: Today is the last day at Wordstock. WEEP! I’ll miss all the wonderful people that I so much enjoyed hanging out with and getting to know here.

Last night we danced, jumped and screamed to tunes from POA and Ten Bullet Plan, then watched a very moving drama about how The Family started. Pictures flashed from the projector and held our attention with a very gripping style. It was a good reminder to stay away from those things that would keep us or distract us from our calling to serve the Lord.

Up next and incidentally the last concert for Wordstock III was Creature. They were awesome last night and really pulled the crowd in. As they ended their performance shouts for “one more, one more, one more” rang out in the hall. They called Mike Fischer (Wordstock’s very talented MC) up to help them with their last number. An unbelievably good and rocking performance for not having practiced this song, we did our last and glorious mosh to “Radical Teens.” We then ended the night with another drama about the prophets of God.

This afternoon and on into tonight we’re looking forward to a graduation ceremony for our high school grads followed by a prom night and dance. Fun!

Here’s a couple of photos, but there’s lots more up in the photo gallery.
