Join a Socially-Conscious Musical Tour

July 24-August 3, 2015, the All In Music Project and Tour will be travelling from St. Louis to Washington, DC with stops in Nashville, Atlanta, and Raleigh under the leadership of Eden Seminarian and local pastor Eric Moeller. We're currently seeking artists, musicians, and vocalists (regardless of skill level) interested in participating in this inspiring and dynamic opportunity to share your gifts and inspire social transformation!

 

Participants will spend time with local grassroots organizations in each city, creating connections in support of the communities they serve. Faith-based music with themes of liberation, social justice, and the transformation of the world will be performed by the participants in local congregations, and public shows collaborated with reputable local bands are set for evening venues.

 

Tour participation provides the opportunity for spiritual growth, engagement in a collaborative social justice project, a deeper understanding of contemporary human rights issues, and an unforgettable travel experience. An all-inclusive participation fee applies, and covers transport, accommodation, food, and other travel expenses.

 

If you are currently searching for a way to showcase your passion and connect to the larger human community in a positive and inspiring way, contact Project Director Pastor Eric Moeller at 928.607.6560 or [email protected] for more information. Also consider following the tour on Facebook and more info can be found there as well. 

Joke

She said she recognized me from the vegetarian club, but I'd never met herbivore.

Inspiration

The God of compassion has shown me a loving face; now I am to be that refection in return. I am to be the presence of God to another. When I offer the cup of compassion to someone, it is God in me reaching to God in the other. There is a oneness of Love bonding us to all of life. ~Joyce Rupp
