The month of November has been a busy, but exciting one! We kicked it off with an incredible "Night Of Worship" in Colleyville, TX. The next weekend I got a chance to go down to Houston, TX and lead for a middle school retreat called "Engage" at Cy-Fair Christian Church. It was a lot of fun! I got to hang out with the students all weekend and serve along side them as we visited the nursing home, prepared food for the homeless and so much more. I love weekends like that. And just this past Friday and Saturday I was in Glen Rose, TX with my good friend Trevor DeVage to lead for a high school retreat called "Rhythm." It was a chance to get away from the chaos and realign ourselves with the rhythm of Christ. I love those students and their hearts.

And finally, next weekend I'll be wrapping up the month of November leading for a middle school retreat (man, a lot of retreats this month!) at my home church. It's going to be an exciting weekend as well and I can't wait.

God has been working me to the max lately and I have been struggling through some stuff with Him that has grown me and stretched me more than I've been in the past. And I love it. I'm so excited to see where His ministry will take me. I've been writing more lately and have been praying over the idea of doing a full length album. But I guess we'll have to see what happens, either way, it'd be next year before anything serious happened in that area.

And one more thing before I wrap this up, a few weeks ago I got in a shipment of brand new t-shirts. I love the new design and colors I got in so if you see me around and want to have one for yourself, let me know and I'll hook you up. And maybe soon I'll actually have them set up to be purchased online, but for now we'll just do it this way. :-) And I've included some pics below of the new shirts... and even one of it in action. Enjoy!

And here's my friend, Jamie, sporting the new shirt!

Hope you're doing well. God bless!

We have had a blast so far this summer and had a great time meeting everyone... from campers to leaders. Matt Fogle took some great pics at one of the camps. Here are a few for you to see... and visit mattfogle.com to view more.

And here is a pic I stole from my friend, Chris Gabbard:

There may be some short choruses that we did that aren't included, but this is the bulk of it. Anyway, still 2 more weeks go to of camps and then we start a week of "Fired Up" in Colleyville, TX. I'll be posting some pics and stuff from camp soon. Hope you're well!

Been spending a lot of time preparing for the summer. And a lot of time recording. I posted a new demo for the song "Reaching Out" on my Pure Volume account. I'm sure it will end up on here one day, but until then, you can check it out here: http://www.purevolume.com/cameronsanderson (Also, the lyrics and chords are posted as well, if you're into that sort of thing.)

Some other stuff that's been going on is the arrival of new merch. Received our new shirts last week and waiting on posters and buttons this week. I'm pretty excited about that. (Thanks to Lindsey and Courtney for their awesome work on the shirt.) We'll have all of this stuff for sale all summer wherever we play and will eventually have it online for purchase.

Anyway, just a quick update for now. I'll be back with some (hopefully) visually stimulating things... and not just a jumble of words. Some pics and other things are in order. See you soon.

Anyway, if you're interested, below are some pics of rehearsal. Brian likes to hog the camera. Nathan likes to pose really awkwardly. And Alex likes ESPN.

Oh, and spent the afternoon with Matt Fogle (he tends to pop up in these entries often) and he took some pretty sweet shots of me. Those will be up soon.

Anyway, I ran across this pretty interesting organization called The Girl Effect. Basically, they take the idea behind the butterfly effect and apply it to a girl. Here is a screen cap from their website. Probably explains it better than I could:

It's worth looking into.

Got to meet some really great people and also catch up with some we hadn't seen in a while. A longtime friend, Derek Draper, is the youth minister at Wylie Baptist and it was great getting to hangout and make fun of him some more. Ha. He went to Baylor, he can't help it. (No emails about that comment, please.) Haha.

Anyway... Devin came along with us and did his light magic. Check him out at movinglites.com

Afshin Ziafat spoke and really brought the heat. His testimony is awesome. Some really evident God stuff woven all throughout his story. Check him out at afshinziafat.com or you can probably catch him speaking at the Village Church every once in a while.

Have a blessed Thursday.

"Hello" - Kristian Stanfill

Ok, so maybe that's more than a few... but with so many new albums, I was expecting to find a dud somewhere. I didn't.

Do yourself a favor and get at least one of these.
