Sometime last year, my daughter attended the Hillsong United concert organised by the youth ministry of NewCre. I blogged about that here.
Well this year, thanks to my bro-in-law Marcus, who blessed my entire family with tickets, we all got to see them in concert at the Max Pavilion, Expo last night.
Check out the ticket number that I was given :-)
The atmostphere was electrifying and awesome and they must have sung at least 30 songs.
The speaker for this year was Ps Judah Smith of the Generation Church in Seattle. His spoke on the topic of sex, which I suppose is relevant given that the vast majority in the audience of more than 5,000 were youths. My kids found him funny and actually wanted to go to listen to him again at NewCre.
His sermon was entitled "Beautiful Affliction" and was based on Luke 7:11-15, a passage seldom preached on where Jesus resurrected a young boy who was laid in a coffin.
An altar call was held at the end of the message and I think there were at least 500 who went forward to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour!
We are looking forward to next year's concert already :-)
Oh ya, you can check out photos I took at the event here

There were 73 salvations actually :)
The rest most likely rededicated their lives to Christ!
