DMB

I am a big Dave Matthews Band fan.  They are coming to Los Angeles, so I’m planning on going.  They are going to sell out fast.  If you want to join me, let me know so we can buy tickets together.

Ticket Info
Tue., August 19
7:00pm

I’m looking at the best available seating ($75 seating charge + $11.60 convenience charge).  All the floor seating is already gone.  At the moment areas 11-13 were still open, and will probably only be the seats in the upper deck soon.  We need to move fast, before they are all gone.

[For those going, the tickets were bought Monday night 9:50pm.]

World Youth Day

We are too late to register and go to the upcoming WYD, but are any of the young adults interested in planning on going to the next one?  The location will be announced at the end of the WYD in Sydney, Australia this July 2008.  When I was in Eugene as a campus minister I was actively raising funds for the university students to go, and they are!  I went to the one in Toronto and recently they were held in Rome, Italy, Cologne, Germany, Paris France, Czestochowa, Poland and Manila, Philippines.

Note: When the Catholic Church speaks of Youth, they mean ages 18-39, which is what we call young adults.  World Youth Day has always been intended for the Young Adults.

The video really shows what is typical when a million people show up for Mass with the pope.  In the Philippines four million decided to show up.  It is an experience like no other!

Oh!

 

Oh yeah!

Oh yeah, let’s go!

 I think this last video is my favorite.  Do consider it and let me know.  If we get enough interest I will take it up with our pastor and present it at a staff meeting.  Even if there are only a few, the Archdiocese undoubtedly will be organizing a trip to the next one.

You will receive power
when the Holy Spirit
has come upon you
and you will be
my witnesses.
