A Tour-Ready Night at Huffman United Methodist Church
The day ended with a return to a place that has long been part of our tradition — Huffman United Methodist Church. While we usually visit in the morning, this evening stop felt just as meaningful and well-loved. The church has always been generous with their space and time, and once again they opened their doors to a full room and open hearts.
We started with a special Parent Meeting, helping families prepare for the journey ahead as Tour draws near. Then, the kids stepped into their full performance — and they did not disappoint. The energy, the emotion, and the unity of the group shone bright. You can really tell the kids are connecting to the message of the songs and the heart of the dialogues, and it's taking their performance to a whole new level.
Thank you, Huffman UMC, for being a consistent and gracious partner on our path. It’s always good to be back.

Tour Day 8 – DISNEYLAND!!!
