[Note: This was written at 3 a.m.] After packing the Explorer Lauren and I hit the highway for Wilmore, KY with a stop in North Carolina for the night. After many hours, some insane storms, and beautiful landscapes we arrived at Ichthus festival in one piece.

Our hopes of setting up our booth the night before the festival were crushed due to tent evacuations and thunderstorm warnings. We were prepared to get up early and have a great first festival day the following morning. But we didn’t get to load in until 24 hours after we were supposed to of have. We ended up spending the day looking for rain boots, and what a great day it was.

After the vending tent actually kicked off, it was a great festival. Along with Kentucky being a beautiful place, the people were so sweet. We handed out a ton of fliers, and made a lot of new friends. There were a few people who are really interested in starting a group in their local community. It’s so encouraging to see others get a hold of these injustices and desperately want to do something about them. I am looking forward to hearing about the groups from Ichthus festival and all that they will be doing to be a part of their communities. And to see them do their part in changing the world.

If you had the chance to be a part of Ichthus Festival, good for you. I sure hope you stopped by the booth and said hello. From accents to rain boots, to learning how to say the festival name and all the crazy things in between Ic hthus was a great time. If you didn’t get a chance to stop by our booth in KY make sure you catch us at a festival near (or not so near) you. We will be at Alive Festival in Ohio for this week, then Creation, Cornerstone, Lifest and so on (check our events calendar for all of the dates). It would make our day if you came out and said hello. Thanks so much for your support.

Take care,

Candice
