BIG PRAISE!!! The Live in Concert #3
Monday, February 7, 2011
We are VERY thankful to God that He brought it all to fruition! Sure, there were some glitches (some cameras that didn't work, angles that we couldn't film, bad hair--mine, bad notes sung--mine again). But all in all, there were hundreds of joyful kids and parents praising God with us and we caught it all on film, to be turned into our Live in Concert #3 DVD! There is a LOT of editing to do, so we would love your prayers. We hope to have the finished DVD out by the fall.
Thanks so much to all at the taping concert for your donations to Rojo Gomez ministry! We were able to raise over $3000, enough for over 6000 breakfasts for precious children who would otherwise go without. To find out more about this wonderful ministry view this clip: http://vimeo.com/18557858
If you were there at the taping and you took home the salmon colored pre-order form, please send it in this month for your discount on the new DVD!
Here are some photos of the event to share with you:

There were a lot of rehearsals: (starting with prayer)--Becky Lew (below) such a help!
It took a lot of prep and set up...(notice the very cool logo sign created by my friends Karen DiMiranda and Jodi Nordstrom).
...the jib camera (this guy was awesome!)
SO many cables, a lot of transitions to go through for the band...
My hubby Ron (in the dark grey button-down shirt) wore a thousand hats that day as director--cameras, band placement...so many details to get in order!
Mike at the soundboard...John on lights (both amazing talents!)
We were so blessed by the involvement of a LOT of special people...
Above, my very fun cousin Rick Lamb and me--he was one of the camera operators.
Below, my wonderful mom and dad, Rita and Lynn Montjoy (hence our publishing name, Montjoy Music). They were so supportive of this project and were there to see it happen!
The DVD just would not have happened without the encouragement, inspiration and help of these two friends (Becky Lew and Trisha Graves):
Becky and Kathleen on hair patrol...
Homework while waiting...
My friend Shannon (above)....one of the MANY volunteers keeping everything going,
Kathleen......
Hannah and Anne....jpg)
and so many more....
Like our daughter Brittany (below) who helped greet people, and play with kids like Dylan!
While the families started showing up...(this handsome guy was so outnumbered)
Kids waited patiently...
Pastor Trisha got things rolling...
And then.......we got "On the Board with the Lord!"
And we all had a great time praising our Jesus together!
The band was awesome:
The Worship team did an amazing job...
Our Chandy!
AND the KIDS--they were INCREDIBLE! (still more photos to come)
And then there were hugs....
It was a blast! Just about everyone I spoke with said it was just SO FUN!
We pray the end result is a DVD that is not only fun, but more importantly, brings kids and famiies closer to our awesome God!
I'll be posting more photos...(and be sure to send some of yours to me!)
