When I first heard that I *might* be going to this concert at the Hilton Memorial Chapel I was overwhelmed with excitement. When my Grand daddy passed away this past October, my Grandma had a Mercy Me cd and we listened to it over and over again. I would say they played a huge role in helping us through that difficult time. I would have given anything to have brought my Grandma to their concert, but she is in Georgia – maybe one day they’ll make it down to Atlanta? Anyway, The second best thing I could do though, was to take my mom. And come to find out it was my mom’s first concert ever. Can you imagine how meaningful this was? And just such a blessing from above. I didn’t spend nearly as much time taking pictures this time as I did at the Chris Tomlin concert, because I wanted to really experience this with my mom. It was just amazing, and until you worship with 3300 people – its a feeling truly unexplainable. GOD was there, he was shining down on us, soaking up and loving every one of us lifting him up.
Aaron Shust opened for Mercy Me. He was sick, but you wouldn’t have known it – he was amazing!!
And then, Mercy Me came out!!
