Faith Night At the Modesto Nuts Game

I went to my first ever Christian Rock Concert tonight before the Modesto Nuts baseball game. I can tell you that I felt every bit of my fifty years old. The music was loud, hurt your ears loud. The crowd was different than what I am used to. The whole Contemporary Christisian instrumental music world is foreign to me. People sang along with the Band as their words challenged "us" to worship, be evangelistic and Holy. The words to the songs were lifted up to God as prayers as people sang with their eyes closed and raised their hands. BTW the concert was on a black asphalt parking lot at 5:oo pm. Temperature on the asphalt had to be 100+. This was not a fair weather crowd.
After the concert Paul and Sarah Sale had arranged for our church group to have tri-tip and pork sandwiches and for the kids to have hot dogs. Drinks were included. We had an area with picnic tables on the first base side. Great for fellowshipping and enjoying each others company. The kids all got wristbands and were allowed to use the jumphouses and slides all night long. Needless to say we did not see much of the game.
Larry the Cucumber and Bob the Tomatoe were at the game. Matthew spent a lot of time with both of them and Wally and Al the Nuts mascots.
My hats off to Paul and Sarah Sale for making Faith Night at the Ballpark happen, it was a wonderful event.

My only regret - I didn't bring anyone with me. What a good time for people to meet family, that is eternal family. May God open my eyes to events like this to bring my neighbors and friends to so they can get a glimpse of Jesus.
