A Father's Day Blessing at Brookdale Presbyterian
Father’s Day is a day for celebration, reflection, and honoring the gift of family — and there was no better place to do that this year than at Brookdale Presbyterian Church. The church was filled to capacity, and there was a spirit of warmth and happiness that made our time there truly special.
Just before we sang, the congregation celebrated a Baptism for a new baby — a little miracle for a family who had faced many struggles on their path toward parenthood. It was a beautiful reminder of new life, renewal, and the power of faith, setting the perfect tone for our performance.
The kids gave everything they had in their song and testimony, honoring both the significance of the day and their own growing confidence as performers. We hadn’t been back to Brookdale since June 30, 2019, and it felt especially good to be warmly received once again. The congregation made us feel right at home, cheering us on and wrapping us in kindness.
Thank you for making this Father's Day Sunday so rich with love, community, and song.

Tour Day 5 – Buffalo NY to Niagara Falls NY

Tour Day 4 – Mansfield, OH to Baker Memorial UMC in East Aurora NY
If there is a “routine” day on tour today, was it. Up in the morning to get picked up from our host families, scrambling to get all the suitcases and sleeping bags loaded up, and rolling out of Mansfield, OH on our way to Buffalo, NY. But, of course, no day on tour is...
Tour Day 3 – Clay City, IN to Mansfield, OH – Jericho Wall & Arc Community Church
Hey Joe Town! Joseph here again. Today we pushed farther east. We saw the cities turning more and more industrial as we drove through Indianapolis. We even got to talk a little trash on the Colts as we passed Lucas Oil Stadium. This rust-belt industrialism is a...
Tour Day 2 – Rochester UMC then to Faith Southern Baptist in Clay City, IN
Here I am, Lord. Well folks, Joseph here again, and we’re in another time zone. My watch is telling me that it is 9:15, but my phone is telling me it’s 10:30… and my body is too. You can tell we are further east by more than just the move into Eastern Time, though. ...
Tour Day 1 – Send Off at AUMC & Rochester UMC in Rochester, IL
Hey everybody back in Joe Town! It’s Joseph here with our first daily blog of Tour 2023. I know you might have been expecting Matt to write these, but I mentioned interest, and he immediately challenged me to a good ol’ fashioned arm wrastle. You can obviously see...
Sing-Out #10 – Wyatt Park Christian Church – 07/09/23
To say we are grateful for what started in this church is a major understatement. Someone had the vision, and the bravery to start something that has been able to endure over a lot of challenges, and positivity. This year as we conclude our Sermon in a different...
