)but it would mean so much if we saw you guys in concert. Ummm i don’t know how to say it but it’s when i’m surrounded by alot of people who all love god and they sing together it gives me this weird feeling(kinds like a boost in hope).i went to a casting crowns concert when i was 12 and the experience was amazing and just made me feel closer to god and i belive going to your concert the same thing will happen. well this is just a dream now but if it came true it would be amazing.
