5/6 ABLAZE Concert

Loud and uplifting the Ablaze bust our ears but touched our hearts. As if for once the crowd was one listening heart a beating drum hanging on every word joined in the light of Christ. I don’t think anyone walked away that wasn’t inspired, the stories the songs everything, so there are no words to describe.
