Team Needs


1.) Sign the concert Agreement and fax or e-mail back to The Fellowship as soon as possible (fax: 480-838-9187, e-mail: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) If possible, send 1/2 of the concert fee to The Fellowship. The balance is due on the day of the concert. Some churches have chosen to have Thrivent match the offering. We strongly encourage asking the local Thrivent Chapter if they will vote to match the concert offering, with the understanding that all proceeds benefit scholarship funds for Shepherd's Canyon Retreat.  Dave Anderson can send you Thrivent "Care In Community" linformation found on the Thrivent.com website.

2.)  We ask host congregations for $250 plus a free-will offering.  If the $250 is not available, we will come anyway!  The "church fee" should be made out to:  Shepherd's Canyon Retreat.

3.) One non-smoking 2-bed motel room for Dave and Kelly. The motel should be as close to the church as possible. Moderately priced. Please put the motel name, address, phone number on the returned Concert Agreement.  If a motel room is too expensive or not available, Dave and Kelly are fine with staying in a private home or homes.

4.) Dave and Kelly will bring along their sound system and keyboard.


5.) We need a contact person who we can call enroute to open the church and familiarize Dave and Kelly with the church or concert site. We will send you a detailed concert tour itinerary which will include arrival/departure information.  Dave's cell phone is 602-538-4066.


6.) We will need an 8' table set up in the narthex on which to display CDs and books.


7.) Would you please provide 2 pitchers of cold--not iced water--and 2 glasses by the front pew before the concert.


8.) Please have ushers available to pass out handouts as people arrive...and to receive the offering.

9.) Bulletin announcements and a press release are also available here.


10.) Posters will be sent to you separately.
