Hey! its been awhile. Since we don’t have too many shows going on right now because of football season I thought I would write a very informative email on the Colts game last night.

Many of you know that I am not an athlete and don’t really know very much about sports but being in a band with a football player I think I will be able to give a very good recall of last nights game even for the biggest sports enthusiast. It was a warm evening in Indianapolis last night as we looked for a parking space near the stadium. We past men with flags attempting to lure us in with promises of “safety” and short walks. However, I read the small print signs that read “$40 for parking”! this may be one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen. So we continued going further and further away from the stadium going down roads we probably had no business going down. After doing about three U-turns in the middle of major roads I found a parking lot for $15 down a dark alley (really, it was rather shady). However, being 7pm it was still light out so I thought it would be alright. So after 15 minutes of walking we arrived at the new Lucas Oil Stadium (nothing gets me more excited about my home team like Lucas Oil).

OK, I will admit not being much of a sports fan I have had my reservations about Indy’s new billion dollar stadium. However, as we walked in I realized something…it’s really shiny! I have always had a fondness for shiny things. I think there may be more flat screen TV’s in there than in all of China. So, on to the game itself. Hunter punted really well! This is about all I really understood about the game but I assume its probably enough for you to have a firm grasp on last night. I am sure that after reading this blog entry ESPN will probably want to offer me a position for their magazine or maybe even a commentating position. But, even though it is an obvious gifting of mine it is not my passion. So, regretfully I must decline any offers despite my vast knowledge and understanding of the game. My only prayer is that all this “sports lingo” hasn’t gone over everyone’s head.

Hey, I just wanted to take a minute to share some information about an upcoming event that we will be a apart of. The event will be on September 5th at Common Ground Christian Church in Indianapolis at 7:00pm. It will be called “Purchased” using scripture from Revelation 5:9. This events purpose is to raise awareness and funds for an organization called Love 146 that works to end child sex slavery and exploitation. We would love to see all of you there to come help support such an important cause. Please check out the Love 146 website for more information at www.love146.com.

Thanks, chris

I know some of you saw this headline and thought I was going to perhaps reveal the date of the next album releasing. If this is so…than I will probably disappoint in this here entry.

We are a different kind of band. Not to make us sound special or superior, but we do have a NFL player in our band and if you know of another band with the same situation please let us know. Since we are “different” I thought I would explain one of the main differences that we have from other bands in this industry. Most bands release an album and travel immediately following to promote said album for up to a year. Connersvine however, released our album during football season (October) and only began to tour to promote in January. We have done as much as we can
throughout the spring and some of the summer. Yet again… FOOTBALL Season! SO, this is where you come in! We as a band really rely on this time of year to be a time of creativity. I think it would be safe to say that most of our songs have come during this season. God has us home (for the most part) and has in the past given us much inspiration during this time where we cannot travel and play. So, please continue your prayers that God would cover us and bring us inspiration and creativity. Especially over Hunter that in the midst of playing football he would have time to create musically as well. We are so grateful for the prayers of those that support our ministry and just want to let you all know how much we covet those prayers! thank you all, we love you!
