How was the gathering?
Posted by nate under: Uncategorized .
Well a lot of my peers are returning from the ELCA National Youth Gathering this week. One such pal being Jonathan Rundman who did daily concerts/workshops/forums on contemporary liturgists. I myself get to wear that title and in the next two weeks will be releasing a new liturgy CD – Becoming Liturgy. Though it was not available at the gathering Jonathan did take along a copy of the CD master and song book as well as a pile of promo cards to hand out. And in my absence shared my songs with a slough of folks. So if you’re one of those folks and you picked up one of those cards shoot me an e-mail and tell me, How was the gathering?

Hi Nate! I was one of those people who picked up your promo cards at Jonathan’s table! I am a huge fan of Jonathan, so I figured anything he was promoting was a good way to go! I’ve been checking out some of your stuff and I really like it! The gathering was fantastic – I took 4 kids from my church in Corpus Christi, TX and we had a blast. We are all music junkies, so we always found ourselves where there was some sort of noise being made. 
We made a lot of memories this past week and fell in love with New Orleans. Can’t wait to hear more of your music and see where God take you! Peace and blessings…Beth

It was awesome! I hadn’t been at one since I helped serve communion at the one in Dallas back in 1990/91. I picked up one of your cards while Jonathan was playing because I’m hunting for alternative (especially guitar-based) liturgical resources and some of your stuff caught my eye.
The gathering itself was amazing … the sheer numbers, the great speakers, the opportunities for service … and especially the welcome from the people of New Orleans.
