Be the best 15:30 member

by: Jess Tack | Mar 26th 10

Hello 15:30s! I apologize if I have neglected you as far as helping you become the best possible 15:30 member. I thought I would give you some pointers as far as getting involved with the Ryfo community. Most of these things are ways that I found to be the most helpful, but if you have other ideas you'd like to share with the community send me a message and I'll distribute them appropriately. - Create a prayer board for artists. Our house has a dry erase board in our living room that I write prayer requests of my adopted artists. This is a good way visually remind yourself to pray for the Ryfo community of artists. - Read the book of the month! This could spare you of awkward conversations and launch you into common ground with Ryfo artists. Ask if they are reading the book of the month, if they are you'll have something to discuss other than "How's tour? How's the band?" If they haven't ordered the book of the month you can encourage them to do so and share what you've been learning by reading the books! - Save up your paycheck or allowance and go grocery shopping before shows. Check the artists care package list and see what they would like to have. If they don't have anything listed send them a message! Try and be health conscious when shopping (limit candy and junk food) go for dried fruits and single serving items. - Ask if you can pray for the group before you go your separate ways. Prayer is a HUGE encouragement, don't under estimate the power of prayer and it's ability to lift people into God's joy and delight! I love you all and am so grateful that you've come along side us to encourage musicians. You are changing lives and I'm so excited to see where God takes all of us!

Romans 15:30

Join with me in my struggle by praying to God for me. Do this because of the love you have for me given to you by the Holy Spirit.
