Cry Out America 9/11/09

On Friday September 11, 2009 Mick hosted a prayer event called Cry Out America in downtown Peoria at the County Courthouse. There were over 75 people in attendance! Mick, Doug Fouts, Robin Fiedler, and Police Chief Settingsgaard all spoke and prayed for our community and nation and the Peoria Fire Dept Pipes and Drums were there to perform Amazing Grace on the bagpipes! It was an incredible day and the weather was beautiful! Here is Mick giving his opening remarks:

Emily, Kenzi and Luke had fun playing with the flowers! Isn't Emily a little ham??!! She is saying "CHEESE!"

Mick with one of the Fire Depts pipes and drums members. (This is Mick's version of Disney World pics with the characters ;0). These guys did an amazing job and it was pretty warm that afternoon, poor guys were sweating so bad afterwards!
