Here are pics from Convoy of Hope yesterday, hosted by Safehouse Outreach. There were about 3,000 people. A whole lotta groceries, haircuts, and other necessities were given away. I volunteered at the stage, where were some talented musical acts. 1-A-Chord was there. I love those guys. I told one of them that they’re like a Christian Kool & the Gang. I also enjoyed hearing some talented guys I’d never heard like my new friend Scott Free. Dude can freestyle like crazy. It was really impressive. And then there was Angel, freestyling in espanol.
I didn’t feel like I did much. I tried to make sure the bands knew how much time they had before they went on stage. I passed out water to the musicians. The best part of the day was helping a guy named Rufus recharge his wheelchair using an outlet on stage. I hate that I didn’t get a picture of him.
