AC/DC Concert

So Monday night I found out I was going to see AC/DC, which was Tuesday night. I've always loved AC/DC and was super excited. The concert was at Gillette Stadium and it couldn't have been any better. When they played Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, the crowd went crazy, you could look into the crowd and see thousands of fists pumping along in excitement. It's incredible to watch Angus Young, a man older than my parents, play the guitar so flawlessly, granted he was covered in sweat by the third song, but it's amazing that his fingers didn't fall right off. From fireworks, to big bells, to cannons, to confetti, to light shows, this concert had everything it needed to be probably one of the best concerts Gillette Stadium has ever seen. Even David Spade and Chris Rock were there!

Off to Mississippi

So I'm going to Mississippi with a group of people from my church next week to help rebuild some houses destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, and I'm wicked excited. I went last year and I think it's really cool that I get the chance to go back, and continue to help some people out that really need it. A few years back when Katrina actually hit the Gulf Coast, I remember watching the news or telethons and other tv specials that would show all these hart breaking pictures and interviews of what was going on down there and I remember thinking "all i want to do is help these people". I thought about how I would feel if something like that happened to me and it made me want to just do whatever I could to help them. Last year I got the chance to go down there, and it was one of the greatest experiences ever. The fact that we can go down there and not only help them, but share God's love throughout it all is a really special thing. As Christians, we're supposed to help out our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, whether they are stangers or not. There was still a good amount of damage when I went last year, but it is getting better, and that's the good part. When I go back down next week, I just hope to help a few people, share God's love and hope, and learn more and grow in my realationship with Him. Our team of 18 needs prayer during this week, please pray that we stay safe, and the God uses us in many amazing ways.
I'll certainly have a post about the trip when I get back...
