Headlined by Hillsong United, Winter Jam also featured Francesca Battistelli, Newsong, Jeremy Camp, Trip Lee, Colton Dixon, Disciple, and more.
It's safe to say it was a PACKED HOUSE. I think over 18,000, all worshipping Jesus with reckless abandon.
I can't even describe how amazing the atmosphere was. AMAZING.
Kendall was most excited to see Francesca Batistelli, and I was most excited to see Colton Dixon (loved him on American Idol!) but my far and away favorite ended up being Hillsong United. I lost my voice singing my guts out to Oceans, along with every other single person in the arena!

(So sad my phone died before I could take pictures of the rest of the performers.)
I've said before that I'm not really a concert goer. I much prefer plays or musicals. But I'll make an exception for Winter Jam... Kendall and I can't wait to go again next year!
What a perfect first concert experience for Kendall! It sure beats my first concert - the Amy Grant "comeback attempt" tour on the Portland Waterfront.
ReplyDeleteAhhh yes, I remember that!
DeleteDang! I meant to check when they were coming through Portland. I'll have to catch them next time. Looks amazing!!
ReplyDeleteSuper cool. I'd like to do this concert. I love the idea of worshiping like that!
