Day 1 SMT: Welcome Home Regen



So for some of us this is the last of our summers doing Summer Ministry Team, and for some of us, this is the first of many, and maybe even for some of us this is the first and the last... we'll let you know how it all goes. :) Needlesstosay (I have a love and hate relationship with that phrase) this is the beginning new beginnings, the dawning of new dawns if you will. We start our journey now!

We moved onto Point Loma's campus in beautiful San Diego, CA this past Saturday and after some nesting, some dinner and some equipment set up and sound check we finally turned it in me and Spesh (Girl Kendall aka G.K. aka Special K etcetera etcetera...) were lying in our bunks talking and dreaming out-loud to life all the brilliant things we're looking forward to for the summer of travels, music, camp food, bus rides, blisters, dirt, peanutbutter and spaghetti messes at jr.high camps, and oh yeah Hawaii! Some of the amazingness we are looking forward to include but are not limited to the following:

*Late nights, early mornings
*Relentless rehearsals
*Laughter til it hurts
*Praying with those beautiful campers we have yet to meet
*Being prayed for
*Bus rides through beautiful places
*Breakfast, lunch and dinner with strange and/or hilarious teenagers who we shall soon call family
*Melodies and harmonies and worship for Jesus

We would love see/hear/experience your thoughts, comments, prayers, jokes, poems, comics, silly songs etc...

Regeneration is:
Anthony Pistotti on Electric, Kendall Richardson (Spesh :) ) on vocals, keys, media shout

Our fearless leader Man-Kendall Johnson and Evan Amo gettin' down and holy on the bass guitar

Jameson Sturgeon on Sound (I promise he's not as scary as he may look ladies and gents)

then there's me to the left, Meaghan Maples also on vocals, keys and media shout, and Taylor Robbins aka Robbi T (far right) on them drums... maybe I'll start callin' him bam bam. He's kinda like a little baby with sticks making a ton of fun and interesting noises. Sidenote: We are rockin' the very cool, semi-stolen/borrowed sweatshirts from our sister band Transparent. They hit the road last Friday! Groupies much? :)
