Friends of Alloutpraise,

As some of you know, we have hosted an outdoor contemporary Christian music festival called Alloutpraise (AOP) for nine summers. We have been blessed to meet so many amazing people and engage on so many levels. If you remember, when we started, Christian concerts were not very popular in our area, and in fact bands often passed over this area when on tour. It has been a great deal of fun, and of course, very hard work.

After praying about it, and because of some changing in event resources, we are going to take a year off and evaluate the event. We will be thinking and praying about bringing it back in the future, but for this year we will not be hosting the event.

We appreciate each and every one of you - those who have attended the event, those who have volunteered, those who have sponsored and supported the event in some way such as the information booths who have given their time to share their ministries and the artists who have taken the stage to share their talents and God's love with all of us. We couldn't have done AOP so many years without each of you!

As a part of this evaluation process, we would be happy to hear your thoughts about the event. If you have any suggestions of things you may like to see in the future at AOP we would love to hear what you think and take all of that into consideration. This kind of feedback will be very important in our evaluation of the event. If we do not hear from people, we will assume that it is not a high priority on your list of summer activities. You can private message us on Facebook or email info@champion.org with Alloutpraise in the subject line.

It has been great working on such a level with all of you. Thank you so much for your love and support of the Center and Alloutpraise over the years.

We will continue to pray for discernment and for God's guidance as we consider what to do in the future!


In Christ,

The Christian Family & Children's Center
