Hi Catalyst followers,

It's your host Lanny Donoho, again, with some important stuff for you. Did you like the conference? The music this year was most definitely the most spectacular-ishly fantastic compositions of any conference this world has ever seen. If you weren't able to come to the conference, you missed it. But we care about you, and we care about your ears, and we wouldn't want you to miss the amazingness that you missed. So check this out.

If you were at Catalyst this year, at one particular session you heard five girls lead you in worship and most of you didn't even sing. You just sat there wondering to yourself, "how in the world could five voices sound that incredible?" Then you wondered, "how can I hear this some more?" Good question. We, BigStuf Productions, produced a CD of those five ladies singing some unbelievable stuff. The CD is called "Together." And you can listen to parts of it, and buy it by going to www.bigstufmedia.com. This will send you to the BigStuf store to get it, and we'll get you all the copies you want so you can give it away to all 1307 of your friends for Christmas...so go listen and get it.

I don't think there is any doubt that one of the most heart-rendering times at the conference was when our Daraja Childrens Choir from Africa stood on the stage and we all watched 23 kids who grew up in the worst conditions imaginable, lead us in an unforgettable time of worship. We have some friends who joined us in creating a project to help these kids. If you didn't see the CD there, you can still get it and know that all the proceeds from the sales of these CD's goes to the education and development of these kids. The CD is called Daraja and has Jeff Foxworthy reading that journal entry. It features Mac Powell, Aaron Shust, Bethany Dillon, Geoff Moore, John Waller, Shane Bernard, Steve Fee and all 23 kids. Pick it up and get a bunch for your church right here at the Catalyst Store.
