Easterfest 2014
By Em O 9:09 PM Australia, easterfest, MADYWAM, music, music fest, photography, photos, travel, YWAMYWAM Brisbane just spent a week (the week of Easter) camping and working at Easterfest in Toowoomba, Australia. Its pretty cool because even though its a Christian music fest, the community and government support and promote it, and it draws a huge crowd, Christians and non. It was so fun for me to help out, from carrying water bottles and checking wristbands, to hanging out in YWAM's chai tent. I think its been my favorite part of Australia. The music industry, musicians, that environment and atmosphere is something that I love to be around. It was also really cool to worship with hundreds of people on the evening of Easter Sunday- singing loud and praising God. (led by Jimmy Needham, who I didn't really know, but apparently he's pretty big on the Christian scene.)
I took a few photos, but mainly just enjoyed the week. It was pretty cold to be camping in tents, but it was fun, I hadn't been camping in ages.
