Skillet Contest and other things of Musical Interest

Hey People!

just wanted to let you all know that there is a contest on CBD's website for an autographed epiphone guitar signed by ALL the members of Skillet! I'm not really a huge fan of them but the guitar is worth $300 and who can't use that money around Christmas time, eh? So I entered and so can you at

Hope you win! Or actually I don't b/c then I couldn't win, lol! Also there is a sale right now for the "Love Came Down" Tour tickets: $5 off until the 28th of this month. The Soulfest2009 passes are also $5 off. You can buy tickets to both those concerts at

Obama and Recycled Bracelets

Hello Everyone,

ok so Obama won but I don't want to think about that right now just remember to pray for our country and for him. Here's a good bit of political encouragement in light of Obama, though. Jasmine Baucham posted this on her blog.

But anyway, I found this cool website (correction-blog, lol:)) that uses recycled materials to make crafts. Look at this cool metal crochteted bracelet!

Election Day!

Hey People!

It is election day and I wish I could vote.....well in another four years I'll be able to. Please keep out country in prayer- Obama was winning the polls and now it seems that he is winning the election as well! I am precupada (worried) as us spanish-speaking peeps say :P! I was praying something like this wouldn't happen. Right now Obama is leading in electoral votes with 175 compared to McCain's 55! May God have mercy on our country.

In Hope of a Godly Land,
Alissandra
