This past weekend I had the awesome opportunity to help out at the Big Ticket Festival Tour in Grand Rapids, MI. Jeff couldn’t go due to work, but our DD-16 was able to go and help out at the voting table.
I was blessed to be able to sit in the booth with my laptop and show people at the tour this site as well as the main site. Most people I talked to first were asking questions about the schedule at the Festival, pricing, camping and so on and I was so happy to be able to show them! As we talked further though, I discovered most of them were in some sort of ministry and so I was able to connect with them and tell them what BTF Minister’s Connection was all about! So, if I met you in Grand Rapids, please be sure to say hi and let us know you stopped by the site!
There were 11 bands that competed to win a spot on the Indie Stage at The Big Ticket and 3 of them will continue on. They are: Rick Hopkins, Icris and Sargent Avenue. Congrats to those bands. If your favorite band wasn’t chosen, they still have another opportunity! There are 6 wild card spots that will be filled with bands from each of the Tour stops. As soon as I have more info on when they will choose those, I will be sure to post it.
I am looking forward to helping out at the next two legs of the tour. They are going to be in Highland, MI on March 21 at Cornerstone Church, starting at 2:00PM and in Lansing on March 28 at Trinity Church, starting at 11:30AM.
If you are in any type of ministry and will be attending the Big Ticket Festival, we would love to connect with you here, at the Tour and at the Big Ticket Festival!
Even if you are not planning on attending the Big Ticket Festival, we’d still love to connect with you as a minister. It has been Jeff’s hearts desire to help other ministers by praying for you, talking with you about ministry issues and so on. To get connected, simply register as a contributor and post a blog. You can also leave comments on posts by us or other pastors and pray for them as well.
In closing, here are some photos from the tours so far in Traverse City and Grand Rapids. Be sure to check out all the links on the right where you can get connected with the Big Ticket Festival and BTF Minister’s Connection!
