Hey, so I was at the Hawk Nelson concert on Sunday night along with hundreds of my closest friends for their Green T Tour. What an excellent show - it is so rare to get quality bands to come to Tucson in the first place. So to get Hawk Nelson to come to town before the release of their new album was great. It was sweet seeing so many PCC students there - we brought about 20, but I must have seen at least another 20 middle school and high school students at the church.

Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t have a man-crush on the band, but I love the energy they bring to the stage and their willingness to interact with the fans and have fun with them. I remember seeing them four years ago when they came to Tucson with Sanctus Real when they were first starting out and it has been cool to see how they have grown as a band - including their work with Compassion International and sponsoring children in Haiti. They even showed a compassion video of their trip before they came out for their encore at the end of the show.

If you are interested in sponsoring a child, check out www.compassion.com or www.worldvision.org for more information. For the cost of a few fast-food meals per month, you can provide so much for a child in need in another part of the world!
