Connersvine

The Sunday before last, Hunter Smith (punter for the Colts) and his buddy, Chris Wilson, came to visit The Creek for worship! Mike and I arrived super early to be sure and get a good seat (or any seat) because we knew it'd be a crazy Sunday. Because of our excellent planning, we managed to get in line before it was too long to meet Hunter and Chris, who have created a Christian band called Connersvine.







Hunter and Chris were fantastic! They played a few of their acoustic songs and sang along to them. Then Gary, our minister, and the guys sat on stage talking about Connersvine and Hunter's platform as an NFL player who loves Jesus. Very cool! Hunter was intimately open about his relationship with the Lord and his struggles in life.





The Creek incorporated church member's life experiences and changes into one of Connersvine's songs that brought most of the congregation to tears. It was an incredible morning, and I know the room was filled with non-believers who had to have been moved by such a touching message.

What an awesome pair! Check out their website at www.myspace.com/connersvine.
