Amazing Grace Jam encore!

The Concert For The Light ‘09 is now history and what a night it was. Our thanks to all the bands, the musicians, the singers, the sound and lighting crews, a platoon of volunteers and the folks who kept us fed throughout the day. What an effort and it came off so smoothly! Thanks to Union Baptist Church for allowing us to essentially take over their entire building for a day and to New Beginnings Church for their sponsorship and other support. And we are grateful for the generosity of the people who literally filled the auditorium and the balcony and donated approximately $5,000.00 to support the radio ministry. Praise God!
We’re already planning the 2010 edition. Details to follow!
If you got any photos at the concert, would you please share them? Please send them to me at bob@thelightradio.net.
NEXT UP: Live Remote Morning Show! I’ll be in St. Johnsbury on Friday, July 3rd for the morning show from 6:00 to 9:00 am. We’ll be in the parking lot next to the railroad station on Railroad Street. Our regional reporter, Paul Essaff, will be stopping by to do his report live. Come on by and meet Paul and visit with Bob and (if she can get up that early) Stephie.

It’s back! It’s bigger, it’s better and it’s happening on June 20th in St. Johnsbury!

Join us for the second annual Concert For The Light fundraising concert with some of the biggest Christian power bands in New England:

- September Rain
- CrossRoad
- Mark Shelton
- Adrian Otterman and Over Orange Heights
- Chad Perron

…with the Worship Dance Team from New Beginnings Church in St. Johnsbury and comic Lucien Dufresne.

This will be an incredible night of music, comedy and dance. We had such a great response last year, this year it should be all that and more. You’ll hear the amazing harmonies of September Rain as they blend their voices for their beautiful and unmistakable sound. CrossRoad will bring their guitar-driven renditions of contemporary Christian covers and classics, you’ll be on your feet and singing along. Mark Shelton is well-known for his dynamic music and powerful tenor voice, we’re so pleased that “Captain Radical” is part of this year’s line-up. Over Orange Heights have just released their album “Floating In The Whale” and will contribute their unique, cello-mixed rock sound. Chad Perron will bring an acoustic interlude between bands harmonizing with his wife in sets between bands.

Lucien Defresne is “that comic” you’ve been hearing about. Lucien will be partnering with Bob Pierce from The Light as emcee and will share some of his hilarious ”backwoods Vermont” comedy.

And the Worship Dance Team from New Beginnings Church will add an extra dimension to the worshipful atmosphere with a beautifully-choreographed performance.

Admission is free, we’ll take a love offering to help support the ministry of The Light Radio Network. There will also be CDs and t-shirts available and we’ll be doing a prize drawing during intermission.

Make sure you mark your calendar and don’t miss The Concert For The Light, June 20th at 6:00 (doors open at 5:00) at Union Baptist Church on Rte. 5 in St. Johnsbury - all your friends will be there - join us!
